The degree is 45 credits, and most students finish in 18 to 21 months. Coursework covers global sourcing, global trade and logistics, closed loop supply chains and sustainability, and advanced leadership, and it ends with a supply chain capstone consulting experience. Estimated totals are $47,695 for non-resident and international students and $40,643 at the resident rate, both including $6,000 in international trip tuition and fees. Budget about $3,000 more for trip out-of-pocket expenses. No GMAT or GRE is required, and you can start in fall, winter or spring.

BLS publishes no separate wage for supply chain managers. They are counted inside transportation, storage and distribution managers, and every figure here is for that whole occupation. BLS publishes no separate wage for customs brokers. They are counted inside compliance officers, an occupation that spans government, finance and healthcare, so figures for the whole occupation describe far more than customs work.
Pay And The Cost Of Living In Oregon

Supply Chain Pay By Metro Area In Oregon
Portland-Vancouver-Hillsboro, OR-WA pays Oregon’s highest logistician median, $87,950, $4,770 above the Oregon figure. Metros crossing into Washington count their jobs outside Oregon too.

A location quotient of 1.0 means the occupation’s share of jobs matches the national share.
