In a world in which companies do not fail due to a lack of strategy, but because of operational issues, the choice is yours: will you observe the supply chain from the outside, or will you lead it end to end?
Enter, optimize or lead, three programs, one shared objective: to take control of the Supply Chain and turn your experience into decisions that drive the business forward.
It is the Supply Chain that determines whether a company delivers on its promises: timelines, costs, service and sustainability. This is where poor forecasting erodes margins, where a poor purchasing decision blocks production, and where a strong operational strategy opens up new markets. If you feel you can contribute much more but lack end-to-end vision, data fluency and the credibility to sit at the table where decisions are made, this master’s degree puts you there: connecting you with real cases, cutting-edge tools and a global network of professionals so you move from executing processes to leading the operation that sustains the business.
End-to-end vision
You master the entire supply chain, from suppliers to end customers, connecting strategy, planning, logistics, procurement and distribution.
One program, three career stages
You enter, grow or lead depending on your trajectory: FT to start, PT to scale, HY to lead global operations.
Direct impact on your employability
You connect theory with real cases, simulations (Fresh Connection) and CSCMP certification to compete in global markets.
Supply Chain + data + technology
You work with analytics, predictive models, BI, automation and digitization of operations to make data-driven decisions, not intuitive ones.
Barcelona as a logistics and business hub
You experience one of Southern Europe’s key cities, connected by port, airport and a strong entrepreneurial and technological ecosystem.
International accreditation
You prepare for the SCPro™ certification from the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP), a credential that opens doors in any market.

You are interested in connecting Supply Chain with data, analytics, technology and innovation, without losing the business perspective.
If you want to make better operational decisions every day, this Master’s Degree is designed for your career stage, not for a generic profile.
Why study Supply Chain Management & Logistics?
Nowadays, supply chains are the circulatory system of any company. When they fail, it is not Excel that fails, it is the business.
- Customers demand speed, traceability and sustainability.
- Executives need data-driven decisions to balance cost, service and risk.
- Global operations face constant disruption: logistics crises, regulatory changes, geopolitical tensions.
Within this context, the question is no longer whether there will be opportunities in Supply Chain, but who will be left behind.
Professional benefits
- You connect business strategy with operational reality: you are no longer “the person who executes”, you are the one who translates objectives into processes and capabilities.
- You move from managing tasks to managing flows: information, materials and money.
- You develop an end-to-end vision that allows you to engage on equal terms with General Management, Finance, Sales and Technology.
- You build a profile that combines operations + data + digitization, one of the most in-demand combinations in the market.
Tools and technologies you will work with
Business simulation:
- Fresh Connection to train supply chain decision-making
Analytics & data:
- Business Intelligence & Business Analytics
- Predictive models applied to dema
- Key end-to-end operations KPIs
Technology and digitalization of operations:
- Robotics & Automation
- E-commerce & e-logistics
- Industry 4.0, digital twins and process automation
Management tools:
- Agile and Lean methodologies
- Project Management applied to Supply Chain projects
- Advanced Excel for simulation and project valuation
Learning Supply Chain is no longer just a matter of “understanding logistics”. It is about sustaining the business when complexity increases.
