Global supply chain program
What this program is built around
This program is designed around Vietnam’s position as an export-driven economy and an increasingly important node in global supply chains. Rather than studying supply chains in abstraction, participants engage directly with manufacturing sites, logistics infrastructure, local markets, and academic institutions.
The structure intentionally moves between industrial zones, traditional craft production, urban trade networks, and rural agricultural systems. This allows students to see how different layers of the supply chain — from raw material to export product — connect in practice.
The program also integrates lectures and institutional visits, creating a bridge between field observation and academic framing.
The program works because it combines three normally separate layers: production sites, policy understanding, and everyday economic life.
Students move from industrial parks and factories to markets, then into lectures that contextualize what they have seen.
That sequencing allows supply chains to be understood as systems shaped by culture, labor, policy, and geography — not just logistics.
