Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Logistics and Supply Chain Management

The word ‘business’ is broad-based because it encompasses a wide range of concepts and activities. Logistics and supply chain management is one aspect of business that has not received much attention from the public. These management skills are not exactly visible, but they are very crucial, especially for major businesses that require the delivery of goods from one location to the other.

This is a very important subject for all types of businesses, both local and global. This programme prepares students to work in the very challenging and dynamic field of logistics which demands fast, efficient and accurate strategic business decisions. Students will be exposed to multiple logistics activities and applications such as inbound and outbound logistics, aviation, and land transport which includes rail, road and off-road transport.

In addition to that, this programme provides students the opportunity to learn the various aspects of logistics operation management, including the design, implementation and management of systems for efficient deployment of personnel, physical facilities, raw materials, in-process inventories, finished goods and related information or services. Students also will have an opportunity to learn directly from world renowned logistics companies through the frequent academic visits, seminars and industrial training.

For a business to run smoothly, logistics and supply chain management are critical elements that need careful planning.
