According to a recent examination of logistics, supply chain management, and transportation journals, Cranfield has the most prolific authors on supply chain topics.
The study assessed submissions to eight journals: International Journal of Logistics Management, International Journal of Physical Distribution and Logistics Management, Journal of Business Logistics, Journal of Supply Chain Management, Journal of the Transportation Research Forum, Journal of Transport Economics and Policy, Transportation Research Part E, and Transportation Journal.
US schools dominated previous surveys; now European universities have broken into the top ranks. This suggests not just increased contributions from universities outside the traditionally dominant logistics and supply chain management programs but also "a lessening of a U.S.-based viewpoint" in the discipline, the authors wrote.
