"Global Supply Chain Management
at Clarkson University showed me how the business world runs today
and where it is heading in the future. You will be hard pressed
to find any Fortune company that is not fully integrating or investigating
the value of their supply chain. This track will prepare you to
step into the professional world ready to make vital supply chain
decisions on both the strategic level and the operational level."

Global supply chains are networks of facilities around the world that procure raw materials, transform them into intermediate and final products, and subsequently market and deliver the products to customers worldwide through distribution systems.
Advances in information technology are accelerating productivity by providing a multitude of new, lower-cost options for integrating supply chains.
To survive in today's competitive global marketplace, it is critical that businesses integrate their supply chains effectively to meet rising customer expectations and declining product life cycles at a reasonable cost.
This concentration, developed with industry input, takes a comprehensive and systems view to integrating business functions by utilizing a multidisciplinary faculty from Operations Management, Marketing, Information Systems, Human Resources and Finance.
