What Is Supply Chain Management?
Supply chains are made up of all the companies that participate in the design, assembly, and delivery of a particular product. Supply chain management goes well beyond what is generally considered “logistics” and is the reason that a producer can provide customers what they want, when and where they want it, at the price they need.
To get a first-hand perspective on the SCMT program, explore our new article, Unlocking the Secrets of Supply Chain Management: Insights from Dr. Seth Powless, in which we interview UC’s Assistant Professor and Supply Chain Program Coordinator, Dr. Seth Powless.
A supply chain looks like this:
- Vendors supply raw materials.
- Producers convert those raw materials into products.
- Warehouses store that product until it’s needed.
- Distribution centers pick up and deliver that product.
- Retailers, online and in-store, bring that product to consumers.

The University of Cincinnati's online course fees differ depending on the program. On average, students will accrue fewer fees than students attending on-campus classes.
The one fee applied across all UC Online programs is the distance learning fee. Students living outside the state of Ohio must also pay an additional “non-resident” fee to enroll in courses at UC Online. This fee is lower than the out-of-state fee for traditional on-campus programs.
