Dr Karen Fryer has had over twenty years’ experience in both the public and private (service and manufacturing) sectors before joining Glasgow Caledonian University as a lecturer. She was a Director of SMEs and worked in large multi-national organisations. Her key teaching areas are Operations Management, Logistics Management and Sustainability/ the Circular Economy at both undergraduate and postgraduate level (including MBA students and work-based learning programmes). She has undergone formal Six Sigma Green Belt training and teaches on a certified Lean Yellow Belt course.

Dr Fryer is the Programme Leader for the MSc International Operations and Supply Chain Management programme running in both Glasgow and Oman and has worked the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport and the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply to ensure that the programme meets their requirements and produces work-ready graduates.

In the same way that her teaching is focused on real world applications, Dr Fryer’s research is firmly based in supporting organisations to use their own information to develop more sustainable business models.

Out with her teaching responsibilities, Dr Fryer is a University Advisor for Enactus, supporting GCU students in making a sustainable difference for people locally.
