Description
Who we are:
Supply Chain Management is all around us. From the package that just arrived on your doorstep to the boxes of cereal you see on the shelves in the grocery store to the manufacturing of windshield wipers for your car. There is not a day you will live without interacting with some sort of supply chain.
Duquesne Supply Chain Council is a student organization made to expose Duquesne students to the systems they interact with every day. By bringing in speakers, hosting tours, and organizing networking events, we want to bring together students who are interested in the background of every product they receive and to encourage them to dive into the world of Supply Chain Management.
Why we're fundraising:
We are raising funds to enhance the student experience within the Supply Chain Council by supporting initiatives such as factory tours, in-class industry discussions, and large-scale networking events. These experiences allow students to gain hands-on insight into operations and logistics while expanding their professional networks. Your support will also help us provide event incentives and engagement opportunities that encourage more students to get involved and recognize the importance of professional networking in building their careers.
The DSCC plays a vital role in career development and community building for Supply Chain Management students. We offer mentorship opportunities, resume and interview workshops, and direct connections with employers who actively recruit Duquesne graduates. Beyond professional growth, our organization fosters a sense of collaboration, leadership, and representation for students interested in the fast-paced world of global supply chain and logistics.
Because of funding we were able to bring together over 300 students and over 30 employers with our Direct Connection event. These students built genuine relationships with alumni and others in the industry to learn about internship and job offers and the skills required to be in Supply Chain Management.
Because DSCC is open to all, students from all over Duquesne’s Campus have been able to learn a bit more about their desired industry. Marketing majors with a sales focus have been able to learn a little more about what they are selling. Data Science majors have learned about the industries they are programming a system for. Because Supply Chain is everywhere, everyone is able to learn a little bit more about their desired industry.
