Core
Modules
There are three types of Core modules: General, Discipline-specific and Specialisation-specific modules. General modules aim to ground you in generic skills such as those in cognitive processes, linguistic and communication, cultural, entrepreneurial, and personal development.
Discipline-specific modules focus on developing your knowledge of Supply Chain Management while specialisation-specific modules are designed to deepen your understanding of the specific area within Supply Chain Management that you have chosen to pursue.
Freely
Chosen Modules
Lastly, one of the thirty modules
you will take in total can be freely chosen from
the entire range of modules offered at the Republic.
