SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT

NU’s Holzschuh College of Business Administration created the Center for Supply Chain Excellence 20 years ago to connect our students with supply chain professionals. The Center has long-term connections with companies and organizations at the local, regional, national, and international levels, including the Institute for Supply Management (ISM).

These connections offer our students diverse opportunities to enrich their learning experiences through facility visits, study abroad programs, case competitions, guest speaker presentations, mentorships, and internships.

“Many professors in the supply chain management program have industry experience, past and present, in high-level positions throughout the supply chain industry. Students are required to think as a manager would, with active learning programs in industryleading simulations and case studies. Professors are very accessible to their students and alumni, allowing students to build relationships that last beyond graduation.”
