Overview

-
This course is designed to provide the tools to think strategically about the role of supply management, to recognize the significance of the interactions between the function and the rest of the organization and to gain a ‘hands on’ awareness of real world supply management through USD’s Supply Management Clinic. Many students have used what they learned in this class immediately in their supply management position – and that is a large part of the purpose of this course.
