I would not recommend someone coming to the University of Groningen for the course of supply chain management. The reason for this is the lack of practical application of knowledge and tools and focus on theoretical concepts. Additionally it is difficult to complete the master in a year, while maintaining good grades and it’s hard to maintain a life outside the university together with the course requirements. The master thesis requirements are extreme in relation to other universities in the Netherlands and abroad for no apparent reason. All in all, if you don’t want to follow an academic career I would not recommend it.
