Ready to make over $70K/yr. upon graduation & over $100K by age 30 (& change the world)? Let’s get started. WMU Top 10: Western Michigan University Integrated Supply Management (ISM)...Nation's best undergrad SCM program (Gartner 2014) https://wmich.edu/supplychain/handout

Dr. Sime Curkovic, professor of supply chain management and Pat Daugherty faculty fellow at Western Michigan University’s Haworth College of Business talks about the opportunities for students who major in supply chain management. This video, directed to potential business students, covers how majoring in a top program like WMU’s integrated supply management program is one of a series of good decisions that you can make in college to set yourself up for multiple job offers, a top salary, and the ability to advance rapidly. The presentation also begins to explore supply chain’s promise of producing products and services better, faster and cheaper and how that leads to better profit margins for companies.

The unique curriculum of the ISM program is the result of integrating supply chain, information technology, continuous improvement and engineering curriculum from five departments across two colleges.

Curriculum includes 13 supply-chain-specific courses (43 credits)—more than other well-known programs.

Required courses include one dedicated to learning ERP systems and processes by using SAP.

All students take Try-Z, an intensive, three-day capstone course in which student teams use Deming’s Plan-Do-Act management cycle.

ISM majors are required to obtain professional work experience, such as internships, prior to graduation.

Students have an opportunity to obtain a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt by completing an industry project using DMAIC.

As of 2019, close to half of ISM majors are Business Analytics Minors (e.g., big data/analytics, database management, data mining, project management, etc.).
