The Master of Science in Supply Chain Management (MSSCM) with a Risk Management specialization at Boston University's Metropolitan College (MET) equips students with comprehensive knowledge of risk factors in global supply chains and the expertise to develop effective risk mitigation strategies.
Though COVID-19 caused major disruptions, it represents just one recent challenge for global supply chains. Escalating climate crises bring more intense droughts, wildfires, and extreme weather, while geopolitical tensions unfold worldwide. Even a single incident like the Suez Canal blockage can halt trade routes for days. According to Deloitte's 2021 Global Resilience Report, 62% of supply chain executives anticipate similar large-scale disruptions will continue occurring.
The 2021 MHI Annual Industry Report reveals over 50% of companies cite workforce recruitment and retention as their top challenge, with forecasting being the second biggest concern. This creates substantial opportunities for supply chain professionals skilled in implementing robust risk management frameworks, achieving full supply chain transparency, and delivering agile, data-informed solutions.
