BSc in Logistics


Logistics has not always been given the importance it deserves. Recently, though, logistics has been recognised as an important business function in its own right. Both the academic and business world now accept that there is a need to adopt a more holistic view of the different logistic operations.

 

Our programme provides an introduction to some of the basic aspects of distribution and logistics, then proceeding to examine the main elements of logistics, detailing its function in an organisation and emphasising its value. 

 

 

 

Learning Outcomes


The aim of this programme is to explore and analyse the vital role played by logistics in the successful running of a firm.

 
The programme provides the student with an introduction to some of the very basic aspects of distribution and logistics, and then examines the main elements of the subject.
 
The programme ultimately aims to make the student familiar with the diverse and dynamic functions of logistics and analyse the various constraints and demands imposed upon today’s local and global business environments.
