MSc Logistics and Supply Chain Management (Professional Practice)

This course is specifically aimed at international students, supporting those wishing to gain practical work-based experiential learning. Together with studying your chosen course, we are offering an additional 6-month placement opportunity, making the course 18 months in length. This allows students to put into practice the skills and techniques developed throughout the Masters degree within a UK environment after completing the 12-month taught program. The course provides the essential framework, concepts, and toolkit required for the strategic management of logistics and the supply chain. Within a business context, it is now recognized that one of the main ways in which competitive advantage can be gained, is through the effective and efficient management of the supply chain - the term used to describe the flow of products or services from their point of origin through to the final point of sale or use. Logistics is essentially an interactive process within the supply chain; it seeks to optimize these flows, from both a physical and information standpoint. Our Logistics and Supply Chain Management MSc course is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) and the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply (CIPS). You will also have access to industry planning software SAP that allows businesses to organize and manage business operations to give you the opportunity to experience how decisions are made in the industry.

An Honours degree (2:1 or above) or equivalent professional qualification, in any subject. Applicants with other appropriate professional qualifications and/or experience will be considered on an individual basis.
