SCM
I work full-time at a bank and in doing so i am also going to school. I am going for accounting, but am thinking of changing to supply chain management. I basically wanted to see if anyone on this board had gotten a degree in this and what you were doing with the degree. Also I have heard it is a male driven degree/field and I wanted to know if any ladies on here who thought there was more a "glass ceiling", because of this. Or maybe it was a good thing to be the minority. Thanks

Re: SCM
I am a female in Supply Chain/logistics project management. I have a degree in Marketing, but extensive experience in systems implementations, training, and analysis in supply chain. I love it! It is very male dominated, but I seem to be gaining more and more female coworkers. I'm exhausted right now, so I don't have much energy to write...but I'd consider getting some real experience in the field before deciding to change degrees. What aspect of SCM are you interested in - systems, operations?
Logistics can broadly be described as processes, distribution, transportation, really anything involving moving people, raw materials, freight, products, etc. between two or more points.
I define operations as usually focused on people and the work that people are doing. So for example, someone in operations management might learn about how to be a manager in a distribution center or how to organize work flow through a warehouse.
Systems - any sort of system that is used in the process. For example, an inventory management software package that keeps track of the inventory in your warehouse or the technology that is used to scan or move product.
Don't change your major until you learn more!
