About Logistics and Supply Chain Management, MSc - at Lancaster University

Many Western companies manufacture overseas. Massive logistics hubs now exist in countries such as China. Demand has, therefore, never been higher for people who can apply quality management science to supply chain and logistics management. The MSc Logistics and Supply Chain Management programme can give you the skills to achieve this.

This programme is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) and the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply (CIPS) and was developed in consultation with the industry. It focuses on the practical aspects of logistics and supply chain management rather than academic theory.

We offer a research-led teaching environment that is particularly strong in operations management. Faculty members of the Centre for Productivity and Efficiency and Centre for Transport and Logistics teach on this programme.

You will learn about all of the major elements of logistics and supply chain management and have the opportunity to explore the most recent developments in the field. In addition to subject-specific knowledge, we also teach problem-solving, critical thinking, and professional skills.

You might be able to participate in a three- to four-month supervised project based in a client company, which will help you build your professional skills.

There is a significant demand for logistics and supply chain analysts with good modelling skills. Our dedicated industry liaison manager has links with opportunities in production planning and process, forecasting, and logistics optimisation. Many of our graduates go on to work as logistics analysts, supply chain analysts, business consultants, business analysts, and database managers.

Alongside the compulsory modules shown in the course structure, you will also need to complete one optional module and one dissertation module.
