Masters in Supply Chain Management

InchicoreDude

I am currently looking for a masters in Supply Chain Management (1 year fulltime taught). No such course exists in Ireland. Therefore, I have to look to the UK where there are many suitable courses. However, they are far more expensive. I'd be looking at 8k - 10k. Is there any grant that I would be entitled to seeing as I cannot do such a course in Ireland?

Another question; When UK universities say "Overseas", Do they mean Non-EU? Or Non-UK?

The problem with this is that it is > 11K which is out of my price range. The ones in the UK are that bit cheaper

However your original point was that you might be eligible for a grant, which would pay a large part of this (if you are in fact eligible).

Yeah, exactly. My question is still the same: What grant would I be entitled to?

Know a guy who did this in UCD. He said the entire year (fees, accommodation etc) cost him €25,000. But he got a job straight after it and has been working for most of the 7 years since. And UCD Smurfit looks good on your cv.

I am pretty sure that DIT does one too ( a masters degree in supply chain management )

I was looking at a course last year in Supply Chain Management, they run a very good one out of Spain which partners with MIT or Harvard..

Cant find it now, but the course looked very appealing at the time.
