Logistics and Strategic Management

Consumers and companies take it for granted that the right product will be available at the right location and time, and that quality and price will be right as well. Behind the scenes, complex processes are planned, operated and monitored by logistics managers. Current and future success in logistics depend on making strategic decisions to optimally exploit the opportunities of digital transformation. This practically oriented degree programme in the fields of logistics, supply chain management, transport and traffic prepares you for this exciting task. At its core, this business science education focuses on the interplay between human, technology and organisation to improve local and global logistics and supply chain processes.
