Business Administration - Supply Chain Management Major

Every business depends on the movement of goods and services. Supply chain professionals play a critical role in making sure this flow is efficient, cost-effective, and reliable. In this major, you’ll gain skills in procurement, logistics, transportation, supplier relations, and inventory management—equipping you to support a company’s operational success.

Time Commitment

‍This is a two-year (four-term) diploma program.  A standard course load is five courses per Fall or Winter term, though full-time status can be maintained with a minimum of three courses per Fall or Winter term. For students enrolled in the condensed Spring 2026 (May to June) or Summer 2026 (July to August) terms, it is recommended that you do not exceed two courses per term.

Taking fewer courses will extend your completion time.
