The MIT Supply Chain Management master's program, part of the MIT Global Supply Chain and Logistics Excellence (SCALE) Network, has earned top honors in two prestigious international rankings. The program has been ranked #1 in the QS World University Rankings 2027 for Supply Chain Management, while the MIT Global SCALE Network has been named the world's top master's program for supply chain and logistics management by Eduniversal's 2026 Best Masters Rankings.
This latest recognition reflects the unparalleled leadership and continued excellence of the MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics (CTL) in preparing the next generation of supply chain leaders. The SCALE Network's Eduniversal ranking marks the ninth consecutive top ranking since 2016, demonstrating sustained commitment to world-class education, research, and innovation in supply chain management.
"I am thrilled at this exciting news," says Maria Jesús Saénz, executive director of the MIT Supply Chain Management master’s program. "This recognition by QS and Eduniversal represents the value and quality of our supply chain management program and the commitment and power of our community of global supply chain leaders. This achievement would not be possible without the support of our students, alumni, instructors, faculty, staff, and industry partners."
MIT CTL has been a global leader in supply chain management education and research for more than five decades. Its MIT SCM program combines practical, hands-on experience with rigorous technical training to prepare graduates to drive supply chain innovation into practice.
The SCALE Network expands this educational offering globally, operating through centers at partner institutions across the world, including locations in the United States, Spain, the United Kingdom, Colombia, and China. The network's collaborative approach enables students and industry professionals to engage with supply chain challenges from multiple geographic and cultural perspectives.
"We are thrilled by this dual recognition from two of the world's most respected ranking organizations," says Professor Yossi Sheffi, director of MIT CTL. "This achievement reflects the dedication of our faculty, staff, and students in serving as a world leader in supply chain management education and research by driving supply chain innovation into practice."
In terms of ranking criteria, QS evaluates business master's programs based on factors including employability, alumni outcomes, value for money, thought leadership, and diversity. In turn, Eduniversal evaluates more than 20,000 postgraduate programs globally each year, considering academic reputation, graduate employability, and student satisfaction.
