We want our students to be employed in leading positions in dynamic organizations around the world. Our constant effort to grow the list of organizations who we engage with (please see the list above) is underpinned by this need to extend our students world class opportunities. In many ways, our task is made easier by the rapid economic growth in the Asia region coupled with the fast maturing supply chain domain. As a result of these two drivers, we are witnessing a spurt in job opportunities for qualified SCM professionals in Asia. As it is, a lack of quality supply chain talent in the region is a documented challenge faced by the companies operating in the region. Our program addresses this problem of quality and preparedness directly and is designed to stand out as the talent provider of choice. In the initial stages, MISI placement team will work closely with the experienced MIT CTL’s career and placement services to ensure that our students are afforded the best possible support and guidance in finding the right opportunity. In addition to exploring the local and regional job market, MISI students will have the opportunity to be interviewed by companies in the US while visiting MIT during the month of January.
