GCLOG Curriculum

Once the student has been accepted to the GCLOG program, he/she will spend 3 weeks at the CLI campus and 3 weeks at the MIT Campus. During these exchange sessions, GCLOG students will work with peers, thought leaders and practitioners from around the world enhancing their perspective on global supply chain and logistics strategy and practice.

There are four main components to the GCLOG Curriculum:

  • Theory and Tools for Supply Chain Analysis – The goal is to build a solid foundation of fundamental analytical skills for the students to apply in advanced courses and throughout their careers. These courses are mainly offered at the student home program.
  • Supply Chain Strategy and Innovation - The focus is to provide students with leading edge supply chain concepts as well as a practical perspective on real-world supply chain and leadership issues. A special focus will be given to innovation at a global and Latin America scale. These sessions take place during the month-long visit at CLI with participation of MIT, ZLC and leading faculty and practitioners of the region.
  • Global Exchange and Supply Chain Leadership – GCLOG students participate in the Supply Chain Innovations and Leadership Series (SCILS) at MIT, which includes site visits, industry speakers, workshops, and the interactive Supply Chain Challenge. GCLOG students will share this session with the sister programs at MIT and the Zaragoza Logistics Center.
  • Capstone Project - Each GCLOG student must submit a team-based project that demonstrates their ability understanding of supply chain management. Students are encouraged to work directly with companies to increase the relevancy of their work. Both their home academic program as well as a CLI research staff will advise the student throughout the project.
