This course is designed to help students synthesize concepts covered in other business courses by providing an integrative framework for supply chain management decision-making in a global business setting. Students will use a hands-on simulation to learn how a business builds relationships and integrates demand and supply activities across the supply chain to deliver customer value.

Firms are increasingly developing sourcing and supply management as a source of global competitive advantage. Students in this course will be provided with the fundamental tools and techniques to deliver value through supplier identification and selection, buying, negotiation and contracting, and supplier measurement and improvement.

The focus of this course is corporate social responsibility from the perspective of the global supply chain. Topics include social and environmental reporting frameworks, risk management, supply chain ethics, sustainable business operations, closed-loop supply chains, disaster management and humanitarian supply chains, and other performance measurements.

This capstone course involves students in a hands-on, team-based project with a global supply chain industry partner, allowing students to demonstrate their skill sets and contribute to corporate success. Students will gain invaluable experience and become confident with their global supply chain knowledge and its applications, and participating clients will benefit through project efforts.
