Program description
Degree awarded: MS  Supply Chain Management and Engineering

The MS in supply chain management and engineering is a two-year, 30 credit hour program for working professionals in supply chain management, industrial engineering or a related field.

The program consists of 15 credit hours of courses from the Department of Supply Chain Management in the W. P. Carey School of Business and 15 credit hours from the industrial engineering program in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence in the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering.

Most students have an undergraduate degree in a technical field, such as business, engineering or science. The objective is twofold: to provide students with knowledge of the fundamental foundations across the full spectrum of supply chain management functions and enable them to use state-of-the-art engineering tools to analyze, control and optimize modern supply chains.

What are accelerated programs?
Accelerated programs allow students the opportunity to expedite the completion of their degree.

3 year programs

These programs allow students to fast-track their studies after admission and earn a bachelor's degree in three years or fewer while participating in the same high-quality educational experience of a 4-year option. Students should talk to their academic advisor to get started.

Accelerated master's

These programs allow students to accelerate their studies to earn a bachelor's plus a master's degree in as few as five years (for some programs).

Each program has requirements students must meet to be eligible for consideration. Acceptance to the graduate program requires a separate application. Students typically receive approval to pursue the accelerated master’s during the junior year of their bachelor's degree program. Interested students can learn about eligibility requirements and how to apply.
