In this course, you will study topics in transportation, physical distribution and warehousing. You will also examine material and inventory management, purchasing, manufacturing, location modelling, retailing and information system linkages for government and private industries on a national and global basis.

Your learning will be cemented through an individual research project which you will complete under the guidance of our experienced staff.

The Graduate Certificate in Supply Chain Management is nested within this course.

Note: This major differs from the Master of Supply Chain Management, which is tailored towards graduates with supply chain management experience and is six months shorter in full-time duration. If you have this experience, consider applying for that course instead.
