the 2015 SCM Class Resume Book

Transcription

the 2015 SCM Class Resume Book
resume book
class of 2015
The resumes included in this book are for the students currently enrolled in the Supply Chain
Management (SCM) Program, a graduate-level program administered by the Center for
Transportation & Logistics at the Massachusetts Institute for Technology. Although the program
is designed for early-career supply chain professionals, the 40 students represented in this book
hail from a variety of backgrounds and countries, including students with experience in fields
such as finance, information, technology, management, marketing and sales. Regardless of their
backgrounds, all students receive a world-class supply chain management education and also
complete a thesis-level project with sponsoring companies.
The SCM program is a ten-month master’s level program where students graduate with a Master
of Engineering in Logistics from the top program in the field. The program prepares students for
a supply chain management career in various industries, including consulting, manufacturing,
distribution, retail, software, and services. Founded in 1998 by the MIT Center for Transportation &
Logistics, the SCM program improves its students’ proficiency in both problem solving and change
leadership.
I invite you to review these resumes and contact me or the students directly if you have any
questions or would like to speak to them further.
Without further ado, allow me to introduce the MIT Supply Chain Management Class of 2015.
Thank you,
