There is a certain tendency I see, especially in recent grads in the SCM, of learning a lot of operations research. Which totally valid, these gals and guys are running circles around me as gar as big data and data science is concerned.

One should not forget so, that supply chains and logistics are still running on a huge amount of physical paper. Process is still king. The basic principles don't change simply because thing become digital. Take a classic Kanban system. That still runs on a piece of cardboard. Using fax to sent Kanban cards around is probably all the amount of digitalization that needs. And Kanbans are still one of the most robust solutions around.

From what I learned about CS so far, both fields are very logical. So go ahead and learn about the idea. Interesting field, and one that can only benefit from innovative solutions!
