Craig Carter is the John G. and Barbara A. Bebbling Professor of Supply Chain Management. His primary research stream focuses on sustainable supply chain management. This research stream encompasses ethical issues in buyer-supplier relationships, environmental supply management, diversity sourcing, perceptions of opportunism in supply chain relationships, and the broader, integrative concepts of social responsibility and sustainability. A second and often intersecting area of research examines behavioral, decision making phenomena within supply management contexts.
