ASSOCIATE IN APPLIED SCIENCE 

Supply chain and logistics are foundational to the modern economy and offer strong, accessible career pathways for local students. 

Nearly every industry like manufacturing, healthcare, retail, food distribution, construction, and e-commerce, relies on effective supply chain operations. As global supply disruptions, automation, and data-driven decision-making continue to reshape how goods move, employers increasingly need workers with practical, job-ready supply chain skills. 

 

This program includes course work such as the international and domestic movement of goods from the raw materials source(s) through production and ultimately to the consumer. Also are courses in economics and finance, transportation, warehousing, inventory control, material handling, purchasing, computerization, supply chain operations, federal transportation and safety regulations are emphasized.
