关于物流专业

jzr0709

请问美国哪些学校商学院的物流专业比较好的,如果拥有两年知名企业superintendent工作经验,但是GPA不高,GMAT跟TOEFL成绩都不错,能申请到奖学金吗?

另外,是国内211大学本科毕业,希望各位大N们赐教~

奖学金并不是那么难弄到，只是全奖比较难，因为我和DICKSON都已经是被录取的了，所以我们的意见会有倾向性，你还是听听别人的意见吧

好的 ,谢谢你们 ~~ 希望有更多的人可以给我意见~ 因为现在还没决定,毕竟对这个不是很了解~希望能了解多一点的信息~

Supply chain has very broad application in real-world operations. Sourcing, procurement, logistics, transportations, lean productions, inventory management, assembly line...etc., you name it. Basically from the manufacturing line til market, everything from outside the factory are related to supply chain. Automobile industry is a typical field to go. Also manufacturing industries. IT industry need it too. You can go IT industry to consult them the efficiency inhancement on supply chain management. For the H1B issue, it really depends on what specific skills or advantages over American MBAs you've got and what specific position and functionality the recruitor needs from you. You may have some cultural or language advantage to help your future company grow. The American companies are more likely send you back to your country, while you can try the companies from your country but now based in the U.S. might be easier.   davidlee0222big1(在) gmail.com

先前CD上也有版友问到采购

在MBA的supply chain中也是环环相扣:

http://forum.chasedream.com/dispbbs.asp?boardid=13&id=307878&star=1#307878

[讨论]如果是采购的话，有没有比较好的MBA项目
采购历来不是一个热门的职业
在很多公司里地位也不重要
但是我有心在这个行业里发展
不知道有没有采购背景申请MBA成功的范例呢？ 有没有哪位了解，有哪些MBA项目可以选择～～
谢谢

A:
Also, different schools may have different catagories for procurement
some schools catogorize it in "logistics,"
some put it in "operation" if they don't have supply chain or logistics major.
some even put it in "Sales and Negotiation" and overlap with operation.
generally speaking, prioritize your searching for specialization by:
1. Logistics, (it's a more advanced classification within supply chain)
2. Supply Chain,
3. Operation Management
4. Sales & Negotiation
You can find these under "Curriculum" and then "Specialization" in every school

这篇文章还有下半部:

-

Generally procurement has lots to do with supply chain, operation, channel management, logistics, and negotiation.

Also a minor accounting and finance.

you need to know the overall framework of operation and supply chain,
lots of power and negotiation, as well as the concepts of economy of scale and finance, i.e. the time value of capital.

Sales and inventory management are related issues that you may need to co-manage with operation manager.

Teamwork skills and communication skills are constantly facilitated
Also the leadership to drive success in the net of cost structure.

Procurement is a common background for MBA applicants. Maybe fewer than other major backgrounds like planing and business development or consulting, but still common.

只有两年经验要拿奖不容易

尤其成绩普通

原则上top 30要申请到奖学金多半是GMAT 700+

加上五年以上年资才会有比较高的竞争力

因为中国跟印度的申请人太多了

BW forum上有拿到奖的几乎都工作五年以上

不少还工作十年以上

不过并不是多难

而是您对物流有如何高深的实务经验与见解

又未来有多强的竞争性与发展性

能让学校不惜发奖来争取您

李先生，你好劲，早些看到你的这些话我就申请 MIT 了，他们写了信找我申请这个专业的。我没想到奖学金看这些。因为当时他们跟我说很 competitive 我就没理了。你能不能帮我看一下我写的关于回复学校的 financial aid 的那一问题。他们 telephone interview 时，说只能给 partial funding, 我就说我可以出剩下的，但后来一查那 cost,我真的一分钱都出不起。我能再写 e-mail 反悔吗？说不是 full funding 就不去。我跟那个 director of admission 天天有 e-mail 来往。
