Center for Supply Chain Excellence

The Center for Supply Chain Excellence is a vital hub within the FSB Ecosystem, working with the Supply Chain and Operations Management program to foster student engagement, corporate partnerships, and cutting-edge research. For our corporate partners, the CSCE is a “one stop shop” for access to fresh talent, faculty research, and knowledge-sharing industry forums.

CSCE Mission and Objectives

The CSCE seeks to drive Best-in-Class results in the following areas:

Exceptional Student Outcomes: Focusing on experiential learning on client-based projects, and direct pipelines to internships and full-time opportunities with partner organizations.

Robust Educational Offerings: Strong undergraduate curriculum buttressed by certifications, online programs, and executive education to allow working professionals to stay sharp and on the cutting edge of their field.

Corporate Partners Program: Mutually beneficial corporate partner programs provide special recruitment access to employers while enhancing internship and career opportunities for students. An Advisory Board of industry experts will help guide the Center in its mission.

Research with Practical Insights: The CSCE and Miami Supply Chain and Operations Management program are supported by top-notch faculty with expertise covering the breadth and depth of supply chain management research. The CSCE aims to translate rigorous academic research into relevant insights for practitioners and solve current relevant issues through collaborative projects with Corporate Partners.

Mentorship Program

Thanks to a sponsorship from Terillium, we have had the opportunity to match over 250 of our students with professionals in areas they are interested in. This is a great way for our students to learn more about certain areas and gain advice from working professionals.
