Wayne State University’s Mike Ilitch School of Business has launched a new initiative with the Automotive Industry Action Group to develop supply chain and purchasing talent. Called the Global Automotive Purchasing Supply Chain Network, the program helps provide community college, undergraduate, graduate, and adult continuing education curricula with real-world lecture material, automotive case studies, best practices, knowledge assessments, and standards. “We have witnessed a strategic transformation of the automotive supply chain over the past 25 years,” said John C. Taylor, chair of the Department of Marketing and Supply Chain Management at the Ilitch School, in a press release. “The rate of innovation in vehicle design, advanced manufacturing, and engineered materials has been truly remarkable and necessitated the creation of an unprecedented collaboration between industry and academia.”
