CLASS HOURS: 3, CREDIT: 3 Prerequisite: MGT 340 In MGT 340 Global Logistics, security is introduced as one of several control mechanisms in the supply chain. The purpose of the subject course is to further develop the concept of security as a control mechanism in different supply chain processes and activities. Control mechanisms will be investigated in several major channels in the supply chain; e.g., in human resources confidentiality of employee records; in logistics cargo and passenger security; in communications encrypted email and hacker-free databases; in finance sanctity of credit cards and identity; and in marketing protection of intellectual property. Students will write a research project as a practicum for learning how to develop and conduct vulnerability assessments and security planning. A major underlying course theme is that security can only be successfully developed and implemented in context of the cultural, economic, and political contexts of the supply chain processes for which it serves as a control mechanism. Some of the coursework can be integrated with the annual planning effort that will go on for MARSEC-CON (Maritime Security Conference), and give the students a chance to network and learn directly from international security professionals.
