Logistics is the science of movement of materials from raw material to the customer, a critical factor in today’s global business environment. The maritime profession is a crucial part. Enterprises of all kinds find logistics to be a key difference for their customers, and an important way to get competitive advantage. Many recent business successes rely on visions involving logistics, and exploit the latest technologies. Students learn current ideas and technologies in the field from transportation, warehousing, inventory, product design, packaging, security, and reverse logistics, and look at global and management issues as well. Case analysis makes students devise answers and look at alternatives closely, so they can find their own answers later in their career.
