LOG 3103 Introduction to Logistics
Provides an in-depth introduction to the methodological aspects of planning, organization, and control of logistics for organizations in the private, public, and non-profit sectors.

LOG 3203 Supply Chain Risk Management
Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) comprises tools and techniques, such as risk management, operations excellence, lean, just-in-time, Six Sigma, and Enterprise Risk Management (ERM). Each of these innovative philosophies has a different functional home. Quality owns Six Sigma. Materials management owns inventory control. Planning owns demand forecasting. Manufacturing owns production control and lean production. Engineering owns lean design. Purchasing owns supply relationships. Compliance owns ERM. All of these perspectives are integrated into the SCRM textbook and analysis.

LOG 4113 Strategic Logistics & Supply Chain
Management This course is designed to discuss developing, implementing, and reviewing purchasing strategies, highlighting the importance of procurement in logistics. It offers strategies for global expansion, managing facility and inventory requirements, and highlighting procurement’s crucial role in maintaining efficient operations in the supply chain. Maintaining operational procedures is emphasized, ensuring transport and logistics enterprises run smoothly and efficiently.

LOG 4213 Project Management
Project Management is the process of supervising the work of a team to achieve all project goals within the given constraints. This information is usually described in project documentation, created at the beginning of the development process. The primary constraints are scope, time and budget. The secondary challenge is to optimize the allocation of necessary inputs and apply them to meet predefined objectives.

LOG 4313 Inventory Management & Production
Contro This course provides students with analytical tools and strategic frameworks for managing inventory and coordinating production activities in aerospace supply chains. Topics include forecasting, inventory modeling, production planning, Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) logistics and risk management, focusing on aerospace-specific challenges such as long lead times, global supplier networks, and regulatory compliance. Students will apply models and decision-making techniques to real-world aerospace case studies.

LOG 4413 Life Cycle Analysis
This course illuminates the complex transformational processes associated with managing complex supply chains that incorporate multiple products and services within ever-changing networks. The course will take you through: starting, creating, and building new supply chains; then, realigning those supply chains for growth, adjusting to dynamic change, readjusting networks, building flexibility, and managing new supply chain risks.

LOG 4513 Supply Chain Modeling & Decision Making
The Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model is designed to evaluate supply chain for effectiveness and efficiency of sales and operational planning (S&OP). The SCOR model is intended to help standardize the process and create a measurable way to track results. It works across industries using common definitions that apply to any supply chain process. Using the SCOR model, businesses can judge how advanced or mature a supply chain process is and how well it aligns with business goals.
