Supply Chain Research & Education on a Global Scale

The MIT Global SCALE Network is an international alliance of leading research centers dedicated to the development of supply chain and logistics excellence through innovation.

The SCALE (Supply Chain and Logistics Excellence) Network spans North America, Latin America, and Europe, with plans to expand into Asia and Africa.  The Network currently includes: MIT Center for Transportation & Logistics (MIT-CTL) in Cambridge, MA; the Zaragoza Logistics Center (ZLC) in Zaragoza, Spain; and the Center for Latin-American Logistics Innovation (CLI) in Bogota, Colombia. 

This unique Network will allow faculty, researchers, students and affiliated companies from all three centers to pool their expertise and collaborate on projects that will create supply chain and logistics innovations with global applications.

The SCALE Network will also enhance supply chain & logistics education at each center.   Graduate students at MIT-CTL, ZLC and CLI will participate in the Network’s global research projects and take part in an educational exchange, traveling to other Network centers and learning alongside other Network students.
