New Policy on Supply Chain Electives

For students who entered RBS-NB Fall 2024 or later, at least 2 of your 3 major electives in Supply Chain must come from the 799/Supply Chain major code.  No more than 1 major elective may come from other departments that offer a few acceptable Supply Chain electives, i.e., Marketing and Management.

Supply Chain Management Double Major Policy

Students who major in Supply Chain Management (799) and another business school (school 33) major double count 3 elective credits as follows:

  • If you major in Supply Chain Management and Finance, you may double count 33:390:440 Treasury Management
    • If Finance is dropped as a major this course cannot count as a SCM elective
  • If you major in Supply Chain Management and Accounting, you may double count 33:010:451 Cost Accounting
    • If Accounting is dropped as a major this course cannot count as a SCM elective
  • If you major in Supply Chain Management and Marketing, you may double count 33:630:385 Marketing Research
    • If Marketing is dropped this course can still count as an SCM elective
  • If you major in Supply Chain Management and Leadership and Management, you may double count 33:620:350 Negotiations
    • If Leadership and Management is dropped this course can still count as an SCM elective
  • If you major in Supply Chain Management and BAIT, you may double count 33:799:450 Fundamentals of Supply Chain Management with SAP

 

Supply Chain Major Special Notes 

  • Starting in Summer 2024, 33:390:310 Financial Management for Finance majors will not be offered. All RBS students will take 33:390:300 Financial Management regardless of major. A grade of B or higher will be required in 33:390:300 to declare the finance major or finance concentration and to take any additional courses in the finance department.
  • If you major in Accounting as your first, second or third major, you are required to take 33:010:458 Accounting Information System and 33:140:320 Business Law I. You will not earn credit for taking 33:136:370 Management Information System. You can earn credit towards graduation if you take 33:522:334 Business Ethics but it will not fulfill a major requirement. 
  • Students with more than one Business School major may only double count one RBS course between those majors.
  • Students may only take one experiential learning course towards their SCM required courses from among these three categories: Industry Client Projects, Internship in Supply Chain Management, and Co-op in Supply Chain Management. Co-op in Supply Chain Management and Internship in Supply Chain Management for SCM required credits are by application only through the Supply Chain department. If you choose to take Co-op in Supply Chain as your one SCM required course you will also be registered for both 799:421 (SCM Co-op) and 011:482 (Special Topics in Admin Studies) with 011:482 counting for general elective credit only. SCM students are limited to one experiential learning experience. After your one course allowed for SCM required credit, you must apply through to the Office of Career Management and you will be registered for general elective credit only.
