美国物流管理专业介绍
物流 / 供应链管理专业 ( Supply Chain Management, Logistics ) 一般都设在美国的管理学院或商学院，还有的学校把这个专业开设在工业工程 ( Industry Engineering ) 里，这个专业在美国的就业形势非常好，毕业生可以进入各种公司从事物流规划，采购，供应管理分析等职业，工作领域涉及制造业，服务业，卫生行业，零售业等等，就业前景非常乐观，因此竞争比较激烈。
最早的一批开设物流专业的学校基本都是美国老牌的州立大学，例如 Michigan State University、Arizona State University、Ohio State University 等，这也可以解释为什么优秀的物流 / 供应链项目都设立在这些州立大学里面。州立大学在综合排名上固然不能跟哈佛、斯坦福等私立名校比，但在物流方向的具体专业上则往往比这些名校更好。
