Supply Chain Management

Build strategic, analytical and technology-enabled capabilities for the future of supply chains.

Supply Chain Management is becoming a strategic management specialization in India, rather than being limited to traditional logistics and transportation. Its relevance is increasing because businesses are dealing with manufacturing expansion, e-commerce, global sourcing, infrastructure development, digital transformation, sustainability pressures and increasingly demanding customers. Shanti Business School aims to bridge the shortage of skilled SCM professionals by developing industry-ready professionals equipped for the growing Supply Chain Management sector.
