تفاصيل الدورة

Course Overview

Logistics is the term widely used in business for the range of activities associated with the movement, storage and handling of materials.

The discipline has been revolutionised over the past 30 years and has come to be regarded as a key determinant of business competitiveness. Companies have substantially improved their performance not only by overhauling their internal logistics, but also by managing more effectively their external links with suppliers. This has become known as supply chain management. These developments have created a healthy demand for well-qualified logistics and supply chain managers in most sectors of the economy. The Dubai government has made logistics the primary sector of the economy for the next 10 years.

Our MSc Logistics programme examines current practices, trends and issues in logistics and supply chain management.
