Minor in Operations and Supply Chain Management

About the Minor

The minor in Operations and Supply Chain Management is designed to prepare students for work as managers or specialists in the operations of manufacturing or service systems. Companies worldwide are competing in very different ways and very different environments than they were in the past because of technological advances. Operations, supply chain management, and logistics are key functions through which companies can gain strategic advantage, and companies are hiring graduates to drive innovations for their new economic surroundings. In this minor, courses drawing on the foundations and the state of the art for both manufacturing and service industries allow students to craft a course of study that can meet the new demands.
