Cranfield MSc Logistics and Supply Chain Management Company Thesis Projects 2021

It is that time of year again, when dozens of students from the Supply Chain Management MSc Programmes at Cranfield University, School of Management undertake a 4-month (May - August) thesis project with industrial sponsors on projects that add value to the sponsoring organisation. Cranfield welcomes any businesses who have concerns or potential project proposals on issues related to supply chain management to consider sponsoring a research project. 

Benefits to your company

Thesis projects provide high quality research into areas that organisations may not have the time, resources or expertise to address independently.

• Customised and objective research that is aligned with your business goals
• Bright, motivated and dedicated students
• Leading academics in logistics, procurement and supply chain management as project supervisors
• Access to the latest research insights and practical approaches


Student profiles

Supply chain student cohorts at Cranfield generally comprise over 100 highly qualified individuals from over 20 countries each year.

• All have a first degree from a reputable university or an equivalent professional qualification
• Most will speak more than one language
