“At this unprecedented moment in history, when businesses, governments and civil society are grappling with complex supply chain challenges, my colleagues and I look forward to teaching a new generation of leaders and problem-solvers who will help shape the future of this critical field,” added Penfield.

Enrolled students will learn how to perform financial modeling for supply chains and risk management with a focus on global networks and vulnerabilities. A STEM-designated master’s degree, the program is deeply rooted in data analytics and prepares students to lead the digital transformation of supply chains by building an understanding of the role of robotics, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things.
