University of Roehampton - QAHEWith the climate crisis threatening the future of our planet, companies are moving to make their global supply chains more sustainable, ethical and resilient without weakening their competitiveness. Our MSc in Global Logistics and Supply Chain Management will prepare you to take on this challenge.
Supply chains draw together all of the activities required to deliver goods or services to a consumer, from sourcing raw materials to production, marketing and delivery, and are a fundamental element of all businesses. On this degree you will learn how to manage this process.
You will develop an understanding of all of these processes and of the different roles people in the chain play and how these work to deliver the product or service.
You will explore the use of accounting, budgetary and other information systems in planning, decision-making and control, and how to apply appropriate analytical tools and techniques to optimise organisation performance.
You will also examine how sustainability practices and concepts influence international business policy, stakeholder relationships and strategy design and process.
The academic staff you will be taught by have a wealth of experience in supply chains across different industries including maritime, food, health, manufacturing and service. They have published high-quality journal articles that are linked to real-life case studies, and you will be able to critically evaluate and appreciate cutting edge research in logistics and SCM and its applications to business practice.
There is the option of taking a placement year where you can put your skills and knowledge into practice as well as develop professional contacts within the industry.
The MSc with placement offers students the opportunity to complete a placement year (30 weeks) during Year 2. The aim of the placement experience is to provide a route for students to develop genuine and practical problem-solving skills in a professional context, to apply learned concepts into practice within their fields of specialism, and to enable students to gain a better understanding of your own abilities and employment potential.
If you are an international student on a visa, your CAS will have a course duration of two years, subject to meeting the UKVI’s standard requirements.
Please be aware that placements:
are not guaranteed;
are typically unpaid;
include a programme of support to assist students in researching, applying for, and finding an appropriate placement;
must be verified and approved prior to commencement; and
will be monitored for quality and attendance.
You should usually hold a second-class honours degree (certain programmes may require a 2:1) from a recognised British or overseas university.
20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.
If English is not your first language, an IELTS score of 6.5 (including a minimum of 5.5 in each component) or equivalent is normally required.
