To work closely with the Center of Global Supply Chain Management (CGSCM) at the University’s Marshall School of Business, Infosys has announced a partnership with the University Of Southern California (USC). CGSCM will focus on advancing global supply chain management through three core activities - establishing a robust industry network, offering a variety of education programmes and performing advanced research.
USC Marshall’s CGSCM will offer the first globally integrated Master’s programme on supply chain management aligned to its mission of NEAR (Networking, Education and Advanced Research).
As a founding member, Infosys, in partnership with USC Marshall, will play a key role on the CGSCM board to design the Centre’s charter of activities and its future growth
Rakhi Makad, Industry Principal, Infosys and Program Director from Infosys for USC Marshall CGSCM, said, “Working closely with manufacturing companies around the world, Infosys has developed a unique insight into today’s highly complex supply chains. We also have our sights set on how companies will best manage and optimize their supply chains in the future. Our partnership with the USC Marshall School of Business will allow us to bring together some of the brightest minds spanning academia and the industry to help shape the future of the industry.”
Infosys will contribute topics for advanced research and thought leadership papers. It will also coordinate with other CGSCM members including industry experts, organizations, trade bodies and local authorities, to conduct the Centre’s activities.
