The Whitman's School is home to the first supply chain program in the country, established in 1919. With an emphasis on managing risk in today’s global supply chains, this 30 credit-hour program consists of the Management Foundation, the Supply Chain Management core, one of several integrative Supply Chain Management “selective” courses, and a culminating experience. Students who have satisfactorily completed the equivalent of any of the required foundation courses in their undergraduate coursework may substitute courses chosen from the approved selective course list. Upon satisfactory completion of all coursework and the culminating experience, students are awarded a Master of Science in Supply Chain Management degree from the Whitman School of Management and Syracuse University.

The Whitman iMS in Supply Chain Management is a distance learning program, with coursework being completed online and independently with three mandatory residencies each year on the Syracuse University campus.

The Whitman School is happy to work with any organization who wishes to send large groups of students or to customize the program to fit specific needs.
