The Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) – Supply Chain Management Minor represents a natural progression of the suspended Supply Bachelor of Applied International Business and Supply Chain Management degree into Mount Royal University’s BBA, allowing students to complete core and optional courses in their chosen area(s) of focus. BBA students have a Co-operative Education option to add practical real-world experience through three full-time work terms.
The Bachelor of Applied International Business & Supply Chain Management program exposes students to the process of strategically directing the flow and transportation of goods from raw materials through to the consumer, in the most efficient, cost-effective means. Areas of study include: production planning, logistics management, purchasing, inventory management, material handling, transportation, enterprise resource planning, customer relations, global logistics, e-commerce, information systems and electronic business. Entry to this program was suspended in the Fall of 2009, however students currently in the program are available for full-time work terms (Directed Field Studies) in a variety of supply chain and logistics roles.
Each work experience component of these programs connects employers with students eager to apply knowledge and skills learned in the classroom. Student workers bring fresh perspective and enthusiastic contributions to an organization while enhancing their skills and confidence. Being a work experience employer is your opportunity to reach out and build relationships with prospective talent while contributing to outstanding programs.
