The Fall 2011 Undergraduate Supply Chain Meet & Greet was recently held at the Livingston Student Center on the New Brunswick campus.
Students and company representatives talk supply chain management
110 students attended the event which featured as many as sixteen companies including:
- ADP

- BASF
- Becton-Dickinson

- Ford Foundation

Students enjoyed talking with and finding out more about the companies. The experience opened their eyes to the possibilities in supply chain regarding small to medium-sized enterprises as well as the larger corporations. As one of our company representatives said, “I was most impressed by the caliber of the young men and women who I met, and hope to have the opportunity to work with many of them in the months ahead on our Supply Chain Intern program. My experience has been that such young people are reflective of the teachers, instructors and administrators who guide them in their education. I commend you for a job well done.”
