About this course The Advanced Practice Supply Chain, Logistics and Management programme is delivered by specialist academics with expert knowledge about the strategic and operational issues relating to supply chain and logistics management
In today's interconnected world, the efficient movement of goods and services across borders is the lifeblood of global commerce. The MSc Supply Chain Logistics and Management equips professionals with the knowledge and skills to navigate the complex challenges of international trade, distribution, and supply chain optimisation.
It is a comprehensive programme designed that provides students the strategic and operational skills essential for a successful career in the global supply chain and logistics sector.
The course offers two routes: a one-year full-time MSc and a two-year full-time MSc with Advanced Practice.
In the first year
Gain the knowledge and understanding of the key business concepts and models underpinning current organisational structures, management decision-making and the drivers of innovation in an international context.
You will investigate a business or management problem/issue that requires independent research and the synthesis of acquired knowledge and data to address the problem. Transferable skills will be generally incorporated within modules and related to relevant assessments as appropriate.
This programme addresses a critical need in modern business. As companies increasingly rely on global networks to source materials, manufacture products, and reach customers, the demand for supply chain experts continues to grow. From e-commerce giants to multinational manufacturers, organisations in every sector seek professionals who can design resilient supply chains, leverage emerging technologies, and drive operational excellence.
Our MSc programme goes beyond traditional logistics, exploring how supply chain management intersects with sustainability, geopolitics, and digital transformation. Students gain a holistic understanding of how supply chains impact business strategy, customer satisfaction, and competitive advantage in a rapidly evolving global marketplace.
The programme is delivered through a blend of face-to-face sessions and online learning, ensuring flexibility and accessibility for a diverse student body.
Advanced Practice, year two
In the first year you will complete the taught (classroom) components of the course. During the second year of the course, you and your fellow students will undertake a semester-long group consultancy project. This allows you to apply the theoretical knowledge gained in your previous year to a project brief provided by a business.
