This course seeks to introduce general concepts in supply chain management, including procurement, supply planning, demand planning, and logistics. This course is designed around a corporate partnership to provide students with the opportunity to collaborate on solving a large-scale supply chain challenge. In the first five weeks of the semester, students will be introduced to basics of SCM through lectures, cases, and assignments. Beginning in the sixth week, students will form teams to work on a real-world case presented by the corporate partner, a complex problem broken down into six learning areas, each with a corresponding deliverable.
