Supply Chain Management Student Life

Each MS Supply Chain Management student enters a cohort in August, taking all classes together, learning cross-industry expertise from fellow classmates, and developing a strong network of future supply chain leaders. 

After completing the program, graduates join our other alumni representing top organizations in the Twin Cities metro, across the nation, and around the globe.
