Supply Chain Innovation and Leadership Series

The Supply Chain Innovation and Leadership Series (SCILS) takes place during MIT's Independent Activities Period (IAP), a special 4-week term in January. 

The month-long series includes talks by industry leaders, site visits, leadership workshops and the month-long Supply Chain Challenge competition. During this period, MLOG students also travel to Spain for one week to visit their sister program ZLOG in Zaragoza.  

Many of the SCILS speaking engagements are open to the public.  If you have questions about attending, please contact MLOG Coordinator Ineke Dyer.
