<p>I have been researching a lot business jobs and I am very interested in supply chain managers. I was wondering how to approach a job like that in college. Should I only major in logistics? Also what does a job like this entail? Is it complex math? What are they usually paid? If you have a better business job then feel free to give me your opinion!</p>

Take as many SCM electives as possible. Marketing and ops management are good too.</p>
<p>
Not really, but a good knowledge of statistics is extremely valuable. Knowledge of Microsoft Excel is also valuable. You probably need to be strong in one or the other (stats or Excel).</p>
<p>
Average starting salary, fresh from college, is about $55,000 per year. Experienced SCM managers will make more than $100,000 after 12 to 15 years.</p>
