Look At The Logistics Professional Degree In The United States Through Two Or Two Points In The Country

The overall Supply Chain&Logistics Management (SCLM) refers to the logistics management system centered on the core products or core businesses of the supply chain.

The former mainly refers to the logistics management of the supply chain organized by the manufacturing, distribution and raw material supply of core products, such as the logistics management of automobile manufacturing, distribution and raw material supply chain, which is the logistics management system centered on automobile products.

The latter mainly refers to the logistics management of the supply chain organized by the core logistics business, for example, the third party logistics, or distribution, or storage, or logistics management of the pport supply chain.

There are similarities and differences in the logistics management of these two kinds of supply chains.

From the development of the overall logistics industry, the development of the logistics industry in the United States has been very mature. The logistics profession has been designed to the undergraduate and postgraduate education section in the United States. The introduction of modern logistics in China is relatively late, so the development speed is very slow, and the manufacturing industry, warehousing and purchasing, retail, consulting and other industries are closely related to supply chain logistics.

From this perspective, China's logistics talents are also very scarce, which is an increasingly prominent potential job market.

Lang Xianping, a famous economist, once described the operation of the supply chain logistics system as an example. He took the American "Bobbi Doll" as an example: "the factory price of a Bobbi doll made in China is 1 dollars, but the retail price at the WAL-MART counter is 9.99 dollars at the end.

The whole industry chain, we only created 1 dollars value, and the United States created 9 dollars, the 9 dollar source should be attributed to the supply chain logistics system.

In the case of fast fashion brand Zara and Forever 21, the success of these two brands is, to a certain extent, relying on a shorter pport cycle to ensure warehousing, while paying more attention to data analysis to enhance operational efficiency.

American Business Academy's supply chain logistics management course:

We returned to the higher education of logistics and supply chain management in the US.

There are two types of logistics management major in the US, one is a master's degree in individual logistics supply chain management, usually in business school or engineering college, the other is the logistics supply chain under MBA, a graduate school of Commerce.

The specific courses of the specialty include pportation, purchase, inventory, finance, marketing and human resources management.

We can also see from the curriculum setting that logistics management majors are comprehensive talents who have corresponding abilities in data analysis and resource allocation, especially for logistics management majors in engineering colleges. They have higher mathematical background and even computer programming ability for applicants.

As mentioned before, logistics supply chain management in the United States is a very mature field, from the field of employment is in short supply.

Take DDT Deloitte as an example, DDT launched a pilot project for supply chain management students in 2010 to meet its rapidly growing supply chain and manufacturing consulting business in 2010.

The project recruits 15 to 20 MBA students each year, from several schools including Penn State University (Pennsylvania State University business school third) and Arizona State University (ArizonaState University, thirtieth place in Business School).

In China, the most sought after logistics talents are those who have mastered the theories and skills of modern economy, trade, pportation and logistics, and have strong English proficiency.

Logistics professionals have been listed as one of the 12 categories of talents in China, with a shortfall of more than 60.

Of the world's 50 largest retail business pnational purchasing groups, 75% have entered China and the purchase amount is as high as about 20000000000 US dollars.

If you choose to study logistics supply chain management in the United States, it is suggested that after graduation, students are advised to seize the opportunity of internship or interview in order to accumulate experience for international management talents in the future.

In the United States, Arizona State University, for example, has an average starting salary of $56410 in 2012, and the average salary of business graduates is US $50098.

As for the level of MBA, the starting salary of students who are in charge of operation or supply chain is $97481.

The average salary is $92556.
