Course summary
In the post-Covid-19 global business landscape, understanding main functional areas of an organisation and the relationship among these functional areas will play a crucial role in being able to efficiently manage an organisation. Effective co-ordination of internal processes and external partners (like suppliers) ensures smooth flow of goods and services to the right consumer at the right time. A dysfunctional supply chain could significantly impact performance and could lead to increased product cost, delayed deliveries and unsatisfied consumers. Recent examples of supply chain crises (e.g. disruption in goods delivery, food shortages in several countries etc.), particularly as the world prepares to recover from the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, have reinforced the need to understand supply chain challenges and its impact on different functional units of an organisation. BSc Business Administration and Supply Chain Management is designed to develop your knowledge and skillset and you to critically understand different functions of an organisation and the role of supply chain in successfully managing an organisation. The course will provide comprehensive knowledge of both theoretical and practical aspects of business and supply chain management, and prepare students to apply this learning in context of real-world problems. Study areas include:
- business strategy
- operations and supply chain management
- business analytics
- quantitative analysis
- logistics management
- project management
- business research methods
