AdvDip Business Administration - Supply Chain and Operations Management (Co-op) (Kitchener - Doon)

Conestoga College

Do you like to figure out how to make things better? Have you ever wondered what causes the supply chain disruptions we have experienced lately? Are you curious about how things are made?

The 3-year Supply Chain and Operations Management program will help you answer these questions and prepares graduates for successful careers in the growing, dynamic, and underserved field of supply chain management. At this point, you may be wondering what a supply chain is. A supply chain connects the flow of goods, services, and information from suppliers to the final customer.

The supply chain sector is critically important to Canada's economy. The sector employs approximately 870,000 Canadians, accounts for an estimated $500 billion in total export goods from Canada, and is responsible for planning, coordinating and moving more than $1 trillion worth of goods each year. Forecasts project more than 27,000 supply chain positions in Canada sit unfilled, and another estimated 66,000 openings in the foreseeable future.

To introduce agility and flexibility into today’s complex supply chain environments, organizations require diverse, collaborative professionals that can make critical decisions and implement new technologies that streamline operations — all the way from development to fulfillment.

This program takes a hands-on, project-oriented approach and provides opportunities to work with current business and industry partners. You will participate in many exciting projects, culminating in 2 applied capstones courses during your final term of study. In Applied Capstone: Operational Execution & Decision Making, students have hands-on experiential learning in the integrated use of ERP systems, decision support models, and integrated analytics. In Applied Capstone: Value Stream Mapping, students work with an industry partner from our local community to complete a value stream mapping project onsite, for a real company. Some students receive job offers from their industry partners upon completion.
