Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) is an approach that integrates environmental considerations into every stage of the supply chain, from product design and material sourcing to manufacturing, distribution, and end-of-life disposal.

This course aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills to develop and manage supply chains that are both efficient and environmentally sustainable. Key topics covered in the course include sustainable sourcing, green manufacturing, waste reduction strategies, and eco-friendly logistics. Students will learn about the principles of life cycle assessment, which helps in understanding the environmental impact of products from cradle to grave.

The course also emphasizes the importance of regulatory compliance and the role of international standards in promoting green practices.

Through case studies and real-world examples, students will explore how leading companies are successfully implementing GSCM practices to reduce their carbon footprint, manage waste, and enhance resource efficiency. They will also examine the economic benefits of GSCM, such as cost savings from energy efficiency and the potential for innovation in developing sustainable products and processes.

By the end of the course, students will be prepared to create and manage supply chains that balance economic growth with environmental stewardship, positioning them to contribute to sustainable development in their future careers.
