LETHBRIDGE, AB – The University of Lethbridge (U of L) and Bow Valley College in Calgary are offering a new program for a high-demand profession.

The two schools have announced the creation of the Business and Supply Chain Management integrated pathway program.

The program will see students earn a Business Administration Diploma with a major in supply chain management through Bow Valley College, and a Bachelor of Management with a major in general management through the U of L’s Dhillon School of Business.

Eddie Sargent, associate dean of Bow Valley College Chiu School of Business said, “Expertise in supply chain and logistics is critical in the movement of goods and commodities to consumers, manufacturers and wholesalers.”

He continued, “We are proud to partner with the University of Lethbridge to train the next generation of talented individuals to be job-ready for this exciting, in-demand career.”

Students will complete the programs concurrently over a four-year period, and will have the opportunity to take an applied studies course with an employer, or explore co-op opportunities.

Funding for the program came through the Ministry of Advanced Education and the Alberta at Work initiative, which expands seat capacity to support labour market needs.

Applications for Fall 2024 are now open.
