Bachelor of Oil and Gas Supply Chain Management
Course Overview
The Bachelor of Oil and Gas Supply Chain Management is an UK Level 6 honours degree at the London School of Oil and Gas Management, delivered across on-campus, online and distance learning routes over 3 years. The programme develops full honours capability in oil and gas supply chain management, with syllabus content aligned to Energy Institute (EI) and Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) frameworks and grounded in UK and international operator supply chain functions.
By the point of award, you will be graduating with a placement year, a capstone, and the evidenced capability to step into a UK-recognised graduate scheme. Every module builds toward evidenced competence in upstream and downstream procurement, contractor management and category strategy, with practice-based assessment rather than examination-heavy coursework.
