Immediate ROI

INDUSTRY-DRIVEN CURRICULUM - Much of the program’s design is rooted in feedback from supply chain senior executives of 42 top corporations who sit on the Advisory Board of UT’s Global Supply Chain Institute.  These senior executives know what it takes to run world-class supply chains.  UT’s leading supply chain faculty meet with them biannually, and their input was critical to creating a curriculum that delivers the core competencies expected in high performers on their teams.

GLOBAL BUSINESS  - As a student in this pioneering program you won’t just think outside the box -- you'll live outside it, by taking classes and connecting with peers and mentors on campuses in Paris, France; Singapore; Budapest, Hungary; Shanghai, China; and the United States. These locations were selected to emphasize key geographic regions, significant economies, and strategic supply chain locations.

RETURN ON INVESTMENT – You will work closely with faculty to develop an Organizational Action Plan (OAP) that tackles a real problem in your own organization with an expectation of hard-hitting results: on average, a ROI of $1M+ USD within one to three years.

TRANSNATIONAL LEADERSHIP – Leadership in a multicultural environment requires a unique skill set.  You will receive personalized coaching from international leaders in executive business education to ensure you will excel across multiple geographies and cultures.

GLOBAL FACULTY – You will receive world-class instruction from faculty from three top ranked business programs, on three continents, according to U.S. News & World Report, Financial Times and QS TopMBA.

NETWORKING- You will also tap into the corporate, educational, and alumni networks of The University of Tennessee and its two top ranked international partner schools: ESSEC Business School and Central European University (CEU).  Additionally, as a graduate of this program, you will receive a free pass to participate in the Global Supply Chain Forums for an entire year.
