Why choose this program?

Create operational excellence within your organization with sustainable solutions.

As an operations or supply chain professional, you manage a chain that is becoming increasingly complex: geopolitical tensions, scarcity of raw materials, stricter sustainability requirements, and the rise of data, digitization, and AI. These developments require more than local process improvement; they require an end-to-end view of how your chain creates value for customers and the organization.

The part-time Executive Master of Operations and Supply Chain Management (MOS) helps you take on that role at a strategic level. You will delve into the design, planning, control, and improvement of supply chains, work with the latest insights from the field, and translate them directly into your own practice. In this way, you will develop into a discussion partner for management and chain partners, while being able to combine the program with a demanding job.

What are the benefits of the program?

Up-to-date knowledge of design and control: you work with the latest models for design, planning, control, and improvement of operations and supply chains, based on the latest insights in the field.

End-to-end chain insight: you can clearly see how operations and supply chain relate to purchasing, marketing, finance, data, and other areas, and where in the chain you are losing value or can add value.

Strong operations and supply chain strategy: you develop and substantiate a course that is in line with globalization, digitization, scarcity, and sustainability in your market.

Operational excellence in your organization: you translate analyses into concrete improvement initiatives that have an impact on service, costs, reliability, and - where relevant - CO₂ footprint.

What makes this master's program unique?

  • Strategic depth with direct practical impact You will connect strategic design of operations and supply chain with day-to-day management. You will apply what you learn from the first module in your own projects, creating value for your organization even while you are still studying.
  • Flexible, modular master's program at your own pace You complete compact, blended modules and choose the order and pace yourself, within clear frameworks. This allows you to tailor the master's program to peak periods, projects, and career steps, without compromising on level and depth.
  • Up-to-date professional knowledge in an integrated learning journey You will work with the latest insights from operations & supply chain management, data, and digitization. The content modules, Business Research Methods, and the capstone project form a continuous line towards strategic decision-making.
  • Personal learning path, guided by experts Together with a learning path supervisor and the Academic Director, you will put together a learning path that suits your experience and ambitions. Lecturers combine academic expertise with practical experience in complex chain environments.
  • Recognized MSc degree with interim certification You will earn 60 ECTS credits toward a fully NVAO-accredited MSc degree. For each completed module, you will receive a digital TIAS certification (microcredential) that allows you to showcase your development in each theme in your resume and to your organization.
