Logistics Management
Do you see to it that iPads make it onto store shelves in time? Do you prevent hospitals having long waiting lists? Or are you in charge of visitor flows at an airport? Everything is possible!
Logistics is about organising and planning flows of goods, information and people in a time-effective manner and at lowest possible costs, taking into account sustainability issues. The Logistics Management programme focuses on economic and financial aspects of logistics.
In addition to acquiring specialist knowledge, during the programme you will develop all sorts of competencies which you will need later for being able to carry out your work well. You will do this by, amongst other things, working on a project basis on ‘real life assignments’ from the industry. Alongside projects, you will follow lectures, guest lectures and seminars, courses, training and coaching sessions. You will also undertake a number of work placements and participate in excursions and study trips. The entire study programme is very much practice-based.
Although the programme is in the Dutch language, it is possible that you can follow one or a number of subjects, minors or guest lectures in English. In addition part of the literature used may be in the English language. The total package is optimally linked to the demands of the profession and the possibility of continuing your studies further.
You can find more information about planning, curriculum and subjects in the complete programme. We will explain below what you can expect in each year.
