An MS in Logistics and Supply Chain Management is a two-year postgraduate degree covering the design and management of supply networks — sourcing, logistics, inventory and distribution.
What You’ll Study
Coursework covers supply chain strategy and network design, procurement and strategic sourcing, logistics and transportation management, demand planning and forecasting, inventory optimisation, supply chain analytics, and sustainability and resilience.
MS, MSc or MPhil?
Pakistani universities use several titles for the two-year postgraduate degree following a four-year bachelor’s, and HEC treats them as equivalent 18-year qualifications. What matters practically is whether the programme is thesis-based, since that governs readiness for doctoral study.
Career Scope in Pakistan
Growth in organised retail, e-commerce and export manufacturing has increased demand for supply chain capability. Graduates work in supply chain leadership at FMCG and manufacturing companies, e-commerce fulfilment, third-party logistics and freight forwarding, procurement and category management, and demand planning and analytics.
Analytics is the differentiator at postgraduate level — forecasting, network optimisation and inventory modelling separate planning and strategy roles from operational supervision.
Admission Requirements
A relevant 16-year degree, plus the university’s postgraduate admission test and interview. Many programmes run in evening formats suited to working professionals.
