Tomorrow, we welcome our new students to Seattle for Residency Weekend, centered on Risk. We have three days of programming bringing together theory and data, industry insights, hands-on problem solving, and classroom learning.

One highlight to Residency Weekend is that we don’t spend the entire time in a classroom. On Friday, we'll visit @REI Distribution Center to see a large-scale operation up close, get into the field, and talk with people who work in the industry. Let's go!

This year’s Residency Weekend course centers on a topic that feels especially relevant: Risks. We'll hear about disruption, decision-making, and how orgs respond. We'll also explore how tools like generative AI, data analytics, and automation are shaping the future of the field.

Each September, we kick off with Residency Weekend here in Seattle (online for those unable to attend in person). It’s busy, fun, and a great way to start building a tight-knit community before the quarter even gets rolling. We’re excited to see this year’s group come together!

The start of a new academic year is just around the corner, and we’re getting ready to welcome a new cohort of students to the Master of Supply Chain Transportation & Logistics program. We’ll be sharing more in the weeks ahead as the new quarter approaches.
