Procurement and supply chains are being rewired from linear to circular, from cost to value, from opaque to transparent. This MBA is for professionals who want to lead that shift. It blends a rigorous MBA core with specialised depth in procurement strategy, logistics and network design, advanced analytics and AI, sustainability, and supplier ecosystem management.
You will learn to align sourcing with enterprise strategy, structure contracts and negotiations that create long-term value, select and develop high-performing suppliers, and design resilient logistics across local, regional, and global markets. You will turn data into decisions through forecasting, optimisation, and risk analytics; build transparency with digital tools; and integrate sustainability by tackling Scope 3 emissions, ethical sourcing, circularity, and regulatory compliance.
The programme develops systems thinkers who can navigate trade policy and standards, manage working capital and total cost, broker cross-sector partnerships, and lead transformation across functions. Learning is immersive and practical, combining case work with live industry challenges so you graduate ready to design low-carbon, high-performance supply chains that withstand shocks and deliver measurable results.
If your ambition is to create competitive advantage through world-class procurement and supply chain management, this MBA gives you the strategic mindset and technical depth to make it happen.
