About the programme
Supply Chain and Operations Management (SCOM) is a three-semester, full-time MSc at TH Köln, worth 90 ECTS. It is taught in German and English on the Deutz and Südstadt campuses and starts in the summer semester. The programme gives you a deeper scientific understanding of logistics systems and covers the whole supply chain, from strategy development and design to processes and execution. It treats supply chain management as the planning, management, optimisation and execution of flows of materials, information and money, including service processes, and develops it towards cross-company, interorganisational operations management. Graduates can work on complex logistics problems in many settings and critically evaluate current research.
