Supply Chain Student Initiative

The Rutgers Business School Supply Chain Student Initiative is a university-sponsored, Supply Chain Management concentration student initiative to promote Supply Chain Management studies and activities.

Our goal is to link education with industry by providing opportunities for students to interact with industry representatives to increase their awareness of innovations and opportunities in SCM. We do so by arranging guest speakers, learning sessions, site visits, and facility tours.
