Departments & Faculty | Endowed Professorships
In 2008, a gift from the John Deere Foundation led to the establishment of the John Deere Supply Chain Management Fellowship. This fellowship supports the professional and scholarly development of the supply chain faculty in the Department of Management. John Deere's long history of support and collaboration with UNIBusiness includes its role as a major employer of graduates in supply chain management, accounting and management information systems.
In addition to the fellowship, the John Deere Foundation established the John Deere Supply Chain Management Program Enhancement Fund, which supports student-learning opportunities; the John Deere Supply Chain Management Curriculum Enhancement Fund, which supports course development within the program; and the John Deere Industry-Academic Partnership Fund, which brings supply chain professionals into the classroom.
Haihao Jin, assistant professor of supply chain and operations, is the current John Deere Supply Chain Management Fellow. His research examines collaborative decision-making in modern supply chains and evaluates the methods, technologies and outcomes of complex corporate collaborations.
