News and Announcements

  • Name Change of the Supply Chain Club

The Supply Chain Club has been renamed as the Supply Chain & Operations Club. The club will be integrating the students interested in operations and Supply Chain through its events. Smith did not have an Operations Club and hence, the students interested in the field of operations were not able to complement their academic experience with operations specific extra-curricular events and industry panels. The change has been done to provide these students with a forum where they can participate and interact to enhance their MBA experience and pursue their goals.
