Supply Chain and Logistics Management
VALPO.EDU/SUPPLYCHAIN
LEARN TO PERFECT THE PROCESS, NOT JUST BE PART OF IT The domestic and international economies continue to grow and operations around the globe are becoming increasingly complex, making it critical for businesses and organizations to manage the supply and demand of goods and services in an efficient, competitive, and profitable manner. Supply chain and logistics managers impact the overall success of a business through involvement in every element of an organization — purchasing, planning, transportation, production, operations, and storage, as well as the threads that connect the various elements of a business. At Valparaiso University, our supply chain and logistics management students learn to perfect the process rather than just be part of it as they develop the analytical and decision-making skills necessary to address these complex supply chain problems locally, regionally, and globally.
Valpo’s College of Business programs are fully accredited by AACSB International – The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. AACSB is a globally recognized nonprofit organization that independently reviews business schools across the world. AACSB accreditation is the hallmark of excellence in business education and has been earned by less than five percent of the world’s business programs.
