Ningbo China Institute for Supply Chain Innovation (NISCI) is an independent, degree-granting academic institution established as a joint initiative between the government of Ningbo, China, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The goal of the organization is to become a leader in the field of supply chain education and research. NSCIIC is the sixth such research center established by MIT's Center for Transportation and Logistics and the first of its kind in China. It is part of MIT's Global Supply Chain and Logistics Excellence (SCALE) Network, which includes centers in Colombia, Spain, Luxembourg and Malaysia, in addition to MIT's main campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts. NISCI aims to become a major center for logistics and supply chain management research and education, actively collaborating with both industry leaders and the public sector to create and share knowledge. The center will offer graduate degrees, with its first batch of master's students matriculating in the fall of 2017. The master's degree will be modeled after the MIT Supply Chain Management Program, which grants the Master of Engineering in Logistics degree. There are also plans for a doctoral degree program as well as a portfolio of professional courses for executives, reinforcing NISCI'S connections to corporate partners. We sincerely welcome all interested companies and agencies to contact us for more information on potential collaboration.
