There is an increased need for professionally managed purchasing and supply chain management, to ensure businesses are able to succeed and provide to their customers. The MSc Supply Chain and Logistics Management program has been uniquely designed to provide a rigorous and systematic understanding of the field, equipping students with the knowledge and wide range of skills required to become a credible supply chain professional.
The School of Physics, Engineering, and Computer Science has a reputation for innovation in teaching and learning, where nearly all MSc modules are delivered through a combination of traditional face-to-face teaching and backup tutorials, using the University's StudyNet web-based facility. StudyNet allows students to access electronic teaching and learning resources and conduct electronic discussions with staff and other students.
A heavy emphasis is placed on theory and practice, and the School has a policy of using industrial standard software wherever possible. The School also operates an open-access laboratory and computer policy to help students complete coursework and assignments.
