2. The 1st Cohort started in January 2008 and ends in January 2009. The same process
that was used for the MS In Logistics and Supply Chain Management was developed for
this program. At the direction of the new ISOM Department Chair, the process was
stopped and a new process is being developed (in line with a new process for the MS in
Logistics and Supply Chain Management). The new process must be in place for the
cohort class that is scheduled to begin in January 2009. Also, data must be analyzed from
the partial assessment for Cohort #1.
3. No student exit survey has been developed or conducted for the program.
