MSc in Supply Chain Digitalisation
Learn to optimize supply chains with artificial intelligence and machine learning
The Master's programme in Supply Chain Digitalisation is the first in Denmark to focus on cutting-edge technologies such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, simulation, and data science. The programme aims to drive the digitalisation of supply chains with a holistic approach, promoting economic efficiency, sustainability, and high security.
This master's programme provides you with a deep understanding of advanced methods and technologies essential for the digitalisation of supply chains, focusing on data-driven decision-making and quantitative approaches. As industries seek smarter, more efficient operations, you will learn to develop and implement innovative solutions that optimize performance and promote sustainability across supply chains.
Through a curriculum built on close collaboration with industry partners, you will engage with real-world, hands-on projects that reflect the current challenges in the digital transformation of global supply chains. It combines technical expertise with business insights, preparing you for a career in both established companies and entrepreneurial ventures driving digital supply chain transformation.
Project based and research based study environment
You will become part of an international, study-based, and collaborative learning environment where you work in project groups. Together with your fellow students, you will take responsibility for planning and completing the project on time. Project topics are usually provided by companies, and we emphasize solving real-world problems where challenges related to digitalisation play a critical role. In your final semester, you will work on your master’s thesis, often in collaboration with a high-tech company.
