Logistics & Supply Chain Management

What is Supply Chain Management?

Supply chain management is the active and intentional management of goods and services flows from design and sourcing to consumers.

In today’s hyper-competitive and technological driven market, supply chain is no longer “one size fits all.” It requires individuals with analytical and relationship skills to manage information, engage customers and suppliers, and integrate processes across functions and firms.

Why Supply Chain Management at the University of Nebraska Omaha?

A shortage of qualified talent equals career opportunities for supply chain management graduates in today’s competitive marketplace.
