Master of Commerce (Supply Chain Management)

Curtin University

This is an ideal postgraduate degree for professionals who want to specialise or upskill in a particular area of commerce. Business professionals may also be eligible to gain credit for recognised learning (CRL) and gain their master degree in just one year. This course incorporates Curtin Business School's future-focused ‘GRIT’ concepts – global, responsible, innovative, and technology-driven – which reflects the skills the World Economic Forum has identified as non-negotiable for the 21st century. You will study commerce subjects that will broadly enhance your employability – including business project management, business analytics and data visualisation, and transformative technologies that impact society and its business practices. These core units will extend your knowledge in areas of business and STEM, and enable you to network with a wider range of peers. Through practical learning experiences, you will sharpen your ability to solve complex business challenges and acquire valuable research skills to apply to your chosen industry. In this course, you will study topics in transportation, physical distribution and warehousing. In your first year, you will investigate global freight transport systems, supply chain analytics and a choice of optional units, including project or strategic operations management. You will also examine material and inventory management, purchasing, manufacturing, location modelling, retailing and information system linkages for government and private industries on a national and global basis. Your learning will be cemented through an individual research project which you will complete under the guidance of our experienced staff.
