Course overview

A key cross-functional part of the management of a company’s goods and information flows, logistics has taken on a very important role particularly linked to the economic aspects of meeting demand. The development of “just in time” delivery, efforts to delocalize and reducing response time to meeting demand are a few examples of logistics tasks in the context of corporate strategy.

Logistics and supply-chain management are key elements in a company’s competitiveness. On a variety of scales, logisticians and supply chain managers are taking on new decision-making profiles, both in terms of strategy and operations, and they need a global vision and sense of leadership to succeed. Their jobs are no longer limited to reducing costs but have now expanded to encompass value creation and innovation in an ever-widening field of operations.

Graduates of this Advanced Master’s program find positions quickly. They work in sectors such as industry, healthcare, consumer goods, mass distribution, consulting, auditing and defense. They apply their skills in one of the areas of corporate operations management (production, supply or after-sales service) and take on roles with cross-functional responsibility at a strategic and/or operational level (supply chain management).
