## What you'll study

The programme has three pillars: i) supply chain and logistics management in practice, ii) data science methods to better capture uncertainty, and 3) operations research and management science to optimise decisions. For the first pillar, you'll learn the fundamental processes and decisions involved in logistics and supply chain management, together with the business context in which they are embedded. These include, for instance, demand forecasting and management, inventory management, transportation, quality management, warehouse management, supply network design, and production planning. You will become familiar with various factors that are challenging and reshaping existing supply and logistics networks, including sustainability, digitalisation, artificial intelligence, and changes in the geopolitical landscape. The second pillar focuses on transforming big data produced by firms, their partners, and the broader production networks to economic, environmental, and social value. For this, you will learn statistics and machine learning and develop projects to solve logistics and supply chain problems using the methods of data analytics. The third pillar enables moving from predictive to prescriptive analytics by using the modern methods of management science and operations research, which enables optimising decisions at operational, strategic, and tactical levels.

The programme has an interdisciplinary perspective, integrating knowledge from business studies, management science, and data science, with a core focus on logistics and supply chain management. We provide a comprehensive education on these topics that is  delivered across three semesters. A number of elective modules allow you to specialise on international business strategy, complex networks and innovation, and project management.

### Structure

- Nine compulsory modules

- One Capstone project module

### Compulsory/Core modules

#### Introduction to Coding with Python

Python is a language with a simple syntax, and a powerful set of libraries. While it is easy for beginners to learn, it is widely used in many scientific areas including data science, machine learning and blockchain. This module is an introduction to the Python programming language for students without prior programming experience. Topics include algorithms and problem solving, data types, control structures, functions, arrays, files, and the mechanics of running, testing, and debugging.

#### Data Science: Methods and Applications

This module will provide an introduction to the methods and the tools of data science. The module will use the programming language Python and will cover the fundamental stages of data analysis workflow, including data collection, data pre-processing, exploratory analysis, statistical modelling, and business reporting. This will involve web scraping, merging and cleaning data sets, feature engineering, descriptive analysis and data visualisation, and applying various unsupervised and supervised machine learning models. The module will focus on applications in the general business management domain as well as the analysis of digital currency and blockchain data.

#### Capstone Project in Supply Chain and Logistics Analytics

This is the capstone module for the MSc Supply Chain and Logistics Analytics, for which students will work on projects and use analytical methods to solve a problem related to contemporary issues that concern supply chains, logistics networks, or transportation. The projects can be based on real-world data, simulated data, or a theoretical mathematical model. The projects and problems can be supplied by firms (subject to arrangements), sourced from online data repositories, or identified from the academic literature. Students will present preliminary results as a group to an audience consisting of supervisors and problem owners.

#### Introduction to Supply Chain and Operations Analysis

This module introduces students to supply chain and operations management, including its purpose, general principles, and relationships with other functional areas of businesses. It is also intended to introduce standard terms, concepts, and metrics,crucial for understanding and analysing supply chains and interacting with business professionals. Topics include contemporary issues in supply chain, logistics, and transportation; supply chain drivers and metrics; supply chain strategy and network design; levels of planning; planning and coordinating demand and supply; production planning and inventory control process; and quality management. We will look at case studies on the use of supply chain and operations analysis in practice.

#### Environmental Analytics for Supply Chains

Sustainable supply chain management is core to mitigating the detrimental impacts of global production, distribution, and consumption. In this module, we introduce and discuss the fundamentals of environmental analytics for supply chains, by integrating academic knowledge and industry practice and including case studies. We first discuss the different methods and systems for measuring and reporting environmental impact, including Life Cycle Assessment, carbon footprint, water footprint, nonrenewable materials management, and environmental reporting. We then discuss circular economy and associated supply chain strategies and business models, including reverse logistics and closed loop supply chains. We then focus on operational initiatives, such as green inventory management, responsible purchasing, green technology choice, and eco-design. We finally look at the social pillar of sustainability and discuss social responsibility and slavery in supply chains, highlighting the relationships and potential conflicts with the environmental pillar.

#### Introduction to Management Science

This module introduces the students to Management Science, which is the study of advanced analytical and computational methods to support effective and informed managerial decision-making. The principal idea in Management Science is to formulate managerial decision problems as mathematical problems, which can subsequently be solved with mathematical or numerical techniques. The use of these methods will be illustrated with applications in diverse disciplines, in relation to supply chain and logistics management. Topics include linear and nonlinear programming, integer programming, network models, decision analysis, and queuing analysis.

#### Supply Chain Planning and Control

Effective supply chain planning and control is the driver of efficiency, flexibility, robustness, and resilience in supply chains. This module will focus on models and techniques required for designing, planning, managing, and controlling supply chain operations. The module will consider decisions and processes at different levels in the decision making hierarchy. Topics include supply network design, aggregate production planning, MPS, MRP, and ERP, JIT systems, inventory management models, production scheduling, and quality management. Students will also learn about fundamental aspects of corporate / enterprise information systems designed to support planning and control.

#### Analytical Frontiers in Supply Chain Management

In this module, we discuss the current trends and analytical frontiers in supply chain management. We have a particular focus on technological innovations that are transforming and restructuring supply chains, including Industry 4.0, IoT, blockchain and other traceability solutions, big data, and robotics. We will discuss the applications of advanced operations research, machine learning, data science, and network science methods, particularly in such data-rich and digital environments. The module will combine reading of academic literature, discussion of case studies, investigation of industrial projects and initiatives, and industry guest lectures.

#### Transportation and Logistics Analytics

In today's global supply chains, manufactured products often travel across multiple countries and multiple states, using multiple modes of transportation, before reaching final customers. Along the way, these products are processed at a variety of inventory transfer points, and reconfigured and combined with other products with the goal of arriving intact at the right place and right time. Topics covered include logistics strategy, transportation infrastructure, transport modes, logistics modelling, warehouse operations, logistics outsourcing, and green logistics.

#### Demand Forecasting and Pricing Analytics

The process of business forecasting involves the study of historical data to discover their underlying tendencies and patterns and the use of this knowledge to project the data into future time periods. This is a challenging task with non-stationarity in data and the impact of external economic factors. The topics covered include simple and multiple regression, time series decomposition and analysis, exponential smoothing, auto-regressive and moving average models, willingness to pay/demand estimation and pricing, dynamic pricing, and quantity-based revenue management.

#### Introduction to Mathematics and Statistics for Business

This 0-credit module covers Mathematics and Statistics topics which are useful for the different quantitative modules and MSc dissertations. The Mathematics topics include: linear and non linear equations, differentiation, growth and discounting and logarithms. The Statistics topics include: descriptive statistics, probabilities and distributions.

### Elective modules

#### Project Management

The module will focus on project management techniques, methodologies, theories appropriate to projects that deliver complex outcomes in a context of high uncertainty on the desired result. The module will also provide team and teaming management principles and practices needed to obtain the desired project management results within time, budget and quality. Students will be encouraged to take advantage of opportunities to earn an accreditation for project management and the course will prepare students for this additional examination.

#### International Business Strategy

The module aims to introduce students to concepts and practices related to managing in a globally volatile, complex, dynamic environment within which organisations, national and international institutions and individuals interact. The elective is designed to be an advanced global strategic management course presenting material that is highly contemporary. This course provides balanced global strategic insights along with proven practical business frameworks and prepares you to respond quickly to today's challenging global environment.

#### Complex Networks and Innovation

The structure and dynamics of various complex networks (e.g. World Wide Web, online social, intra/interorganisational, im/export trade networks) are examined. A unified theoretical framework to analyse sociologically relevant phenomena exhibiting complex dynamic network structures (e.g. information diffusion, cultural fads, financial crises, and viral marketing) is the aim. Innovation, to uncover the structural foundations of knowledge creation, transfer, sharing, and diffusion in various empirical domains is emphasised from an interdisciplinary perspective by combining current research on complex networks with contributions from relevant organisational and sociological research.

#### Introduction to Coding with Python

Python is a language with a simple syntax, and a powerful set of libraries. While it is easy for beginners to learn, it is widely used in many scientific areas including data science, machine learning and blockchain. This module is an introduction to the Python programming language for students without prior programming experience. Topics include algorithms and problem solving, data types, control structures, functions, arrays, files, and the mechanics of running, testing, and debugging.
