Please join us to raise funds for student scholarships, student attendance at educational supply chain conference events and supply chain center activities that are designed to bring talented and well educated undergraduate students (Bachelor of Science in Supply Chain Management – a fully certified STEM-based degree) into your organizations as you seek to acquire more talent.
The cost for students to earn their four-year degree is over $16,000 per year (in state tuition) with additional expenses for books, laptops, etc. Any gift helps to support our growing student population: The program has grown from 60 students in 2021 to over 100 students in 2022 with a growth trajectory towards 300 students within the next three years
Our students are impressive:
Average freshmen SAT score of 1286
99% graduate within four years with an average GPA of 3.68 (they need a minimum of a B- in all prerequisite courses to be accepted into the program)
99% receive supply chain job offers two full months prior to graduation with an average starting salary of $65-70,000 per year
60% of our graduates receive 2-3 job offers well before graduation
30% of our graduates are promoted within the first 2 years of employment
Placement is primarily with aerospace, pharmaceutical procurement, retail/other distribution leadership, manufacturing leadership, supply chain analytics and logistics services roles.
THE CHALLENGE FOR OUR STUDENTS......THE NEED FOR STUDENT SCHOLARSHIP SUPPORT & USF SUPPLY CHAIN CENTER SUPPORT:
Our diverse student population come from a variety of backgrounds with many needs: they are smart, gritty, curious and supremely humble!
44% are Pell Grant eligibleFamily incomes less than $30,000 per year
Average family income for incoming freshmen students is $50,000 per yearFirst-generation college students
Half are bilingual
Many work close to full time in addition to their studies to support their own parents' household bills while paying for tuition – scholarships bridge the gap for these deserving students.
Our students are willing to be placed anywhere in the US and fill roles in a variety of industry verticals: pharmaceutical, financial services, entertainment, medical devices, aerospace, retail, logistics and transportation Services. Their roles cover the spectrum within planning, procurement, analytics, distribution/manufacturing, supply chain technology and transportation (all modes).
