Welcome to the Supply Chain Management Institute at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, a unique industry-university partnership that examines supply chain challenges and practices within firms and across a variety of industrial sectors.
The Institute seeks to build a vibrant environment for supply chain connections and the sharing and dissemination of supply chain-related information by:
- Facilitating networking and supply chain-related knowledge sharing,
- Creating and enabling student-to-partner company connections, and
- Gathering industry feedback to continuously improve our supply chain curriculum.
Our member companies have engaged with students this year through guest lectures, mock interviews, resume reviews, and mentoring. To learn how we may be able to help your company, please visit our Corporate Partners page. We’ve pulled together some recent supply chain articles on big data, agility, drones and supply chain trends which you may find interesting. We also maintain links to some excellent supply chain resources.
