How would an MBA in Supply Chain Management help a career path as a 12A?

There are degrees in Supply Chain Management if you want to be a supply chain expert. I worked with a person that had an SCMr from MIT. She was brilliant. I hold an MBA and it has been very useful to me for because I am a business consultant. A undergrad in econ and a grad in SC will make you deadly in the private sector!

I considered a niche MBA however in talking to many in regards to hiring I decided just to get a general MBA. In the civilian world niche degree = "pigeon hole your career opportunities". As well with you current undergrad - a general MBA is really just an expanded version of your current degree.
However if you know your 100% a lifer - the degree seems like a good fit for your current branch. Best of luck.

Hi Anthony, as an Engineer Officer you should really look into getting a Master’s degree in Construction Management or some other “hard science.” But, any Master’s degree is fine.

Having said all of that, right now you should be focusing on learning tactics, small unit leadership, Army regulations and doctrine, etc. If you do well, you will have AMPLE opportunities to get a Master’s degree: ECCC, ILE, etc. I’m at the War College now getting my fourth Master’s degree.

Bottom line: learn your job and your craft now. Wait on the MBA.
