MSc Supply Chain & Logistics

Academic Overview

Supply chains collapsed and recovered in public view — expertise is in demand. This MSc covers procurement strategy, warehouse and transport optimisation, demand forecasting, and supply-chain risk. Case studies span automotive, e-commerce, pharmaceutical cold chains, and UN humanitarian logistics. You will use Excel, ERP concepts, and network design principles to deliver measurable cost and service improvements. MSc Supply Chain & Logistics is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 18 months, and the credit total is 36. Students move from Supply Chain Strategy through Supply Chain Strategy; Procurement & Supplier Management; Inventory & Warehouse Management; Transport & Distribution; Demand Planning & Forecasting; Global Trade & Customs, and finish on Supply Chain Capstone Project. Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students find where time or cost is lost and recommend one operational change. Reading is a process map, a capacity note, and a disruption case. The artefact a marker expects is a recommendation for one lane, site, or service with the cost and the risk. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Design distribution networks balancing cost and resilience Negotiate supplier contracts with TCO analysis Implement inventory policies using forecasting models Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.

The degree is awarded directly by IU International University of Applied Sciences, seated in Warsaw, Poland. Studies are conducted in full alignment with Polish and European academic standards.
