Curriculum Overview
The supply chain management profession addresses the critical link between demand creation and the fulfillment of demand. Supply chain management professionals participate in fundamental decisions associated with current and future business success, addressing product design, sourcing, transportation, storage, e-commerce and delivery of the final goods to the customers. Information technology plays an important role in making transactions efficient (cost saving) and effective (meeting customer’s needs). The global nature of the supply chain industry makes this discipline exciting and rewarding.

Students in Saint Louis University's Master of Science in Supply Chain Management program will also gain additional exposure to the design, implementation and management of efficient ways to integrate the flow of materials and information among suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses and stores. The curriculum focuses on the theoretical as well as the applied supply chain and logistics skills that are essential in today’s competitive global supply chain environment. Students learn operations management, logistics, information technologies, finance, Lean/Six Sigma, ERP, project management and simulation to deliver the analytical skills employed in the public and private sectors.

In addition to the Master of Arts in Educational Leadership, a master's degree with a concentration in Catholic education is offered. The Catholic education concentration is designed to prepare students for school-level leadership positions, most commonly principalship in Catholic elementary, middle and high schools, as well as teacher leadership.
