Supply chain management (SCM) is concerned with the coordination of the physical flow of goods and services across space, time and different types of organisations. In this course, SCM is approached from the point of view of (industrial, or business-to-business) marketing, strategic management and transaction cost economics, always with a focus on the fruit industry. The course offers an introduction into the topic provides the participants with a basic understanding of the involved issues, concepts and methods, so that they can apply them in their later job activities. In addition, the participants will learn and be able to apply the basics of innovation management, in particular collaborative innovation activities across the supply chain. Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: describe and discuss the basic concepts of SCM and innovation management theory (Knowing and Understanding); apply basic techniques of SCM and innovation management theory in practical work situations (Applying); take well-founded decisions in current and future situations in their professional activities in the area of SCM and innovation.
