Logistics & Supply Chain Management

Hi Ramesh,
The answer to your question actually depends on your requirement like what are your career prospects, what profile or exp you carry, which domain/field you want to opt for, etc.
Further as far as MBA in Logistics & SCM is concerned. Performance of supply chain is directly proportional to the productivity of a company. With the retail boom in the country, a career in SCM is both challenging and rewarding option. You could get the following job profiles after completing the required qualifications: Commodity Buyer, Supply Planner, Supplier Manager, Purchasing Executives, Implementation Manager, Procurement Officer.

Hi Sunita,
Logistics Management is a small portion of Supply Chain Management that deals with management of goods in an efficient way. Although, if we talk about Supply Chain Management, it is a broader term which refers to the connection, right from the suppliers to the ultimate consumer.
The following are the major differences between logistics and supply chain management:
- The flow and storage of goods inside and outside the firm is known as Logistics. The movement and integration of supply chain activities is known as Supply Chain Management.
- The main aim of Logistics is full customer satisfaction. Conversely, the main aim behind Supply chain Management is to gain substantial competitive advantage.
- There is only one organization involved in Logistics while a number of organizations are involved in Supply Chain Management.
Supply Chain Management is a new concept as compared to Logistics.
- Logistics is only an activity of Supply Chain Management.

Hi, For admission various universities and B schools have already issued their admission notification. You can search online, a few days back i came across the notification of UPES dehradoon which has announced its UPESMET test dates for the MBA admissions. Its MBA Supply chain program is quite popular and last year the placement was also quite good for this branch. For MBA Supply Chain other than UPES you can look for Symbiosis, LPU, Amity etc. but UPES definitely comes on the top among all of these. You can check the details on official website of these bschools. You should keep a tab on the websites of bschools you are targeting for your MBA to apply for their GD/PIs of the basis of your MAT,CAT, XAT scores or apply for their individual tests. Hope this info helps! Good luck :)
