Career-Defining Curriculum

Unlike two-year programs that focus on clerical activities and processing transactions in the supply chain, 91��Ƭ Polytechnic's program will teach you to solve complex problems in the supply chain leading to faster and more frequent promotions.

By the time you graduate, you'll be ready to begin your management career and improve your company's performance at the lowest cost and at the highest quality and safety within the supply chain.

"What's unique about this program is you get a taste of everything. You're not going to just be focused on supply chain or just focused on business. You turn out to be a very well-rounded individual after you graduate, because you'll have expertise in a little bit of everything."

As a supply chain management student, your studies will start with a variety of introductory business courses to build your management learning base. You'll then progress to the program-specific courses including procurement, logistics, accounting cost modeling, and supply chain modeling.
