Why Logistics Management?
From the phone in your hand to the trainers on your feet, virtually everything you have, own or use has at some point been carried on a lorry, train, ship, plane or even a pipeline. At any one time millions of tonnes of goods are on the move across the world. Logistics is a dynamic and increasingly sophisticated global industry that touches everyone. The effective and efficient management of logistics has implications for the economy, the environment as well as society as a whole.
The Business School has links with a variety of professional bodies and there are many opportunities for work experience to prepare you for future employment.
Who is this course for?
This course is for you if you would like to know more about the management and movement of goods. Logistics is a vital part of the economy and is becoming increasingly important in the global marketplace. This course gives you the opportunity to balance academic management learning with practical insights into this fastmoving industry.
This course is particularly appropriate for those seeking management roles not only in logistics but also those considering other industries and sectors throughout the UK and the EU, particularly supply chain, retail and manufacturing as well as many sectors.
What will i study?
The course takes a two-fold approach. On the one hand it covers the practical and more general elements of logistics, including different transport modes, intermodal operations, warehousing and inventory operations. On the other, it looks at the management aspects of logistics including areas such as strategic logistics, outsourcing operations and benchmarking.
The course includes illustrations and examples from the industry as well as the opportunity to visit logistic operations in Kent. All core and optional modules prepare you for a professional career and provide you with the opportunity to gain a broader understanding of the business world.
The first year introduces you to some of the main themes of the course. It includes introductory modules in business accounting, economics, management science, marketing and organisational management.
The following years involve studying business aspects from a more strategic viewpoint. International logistics is a core module, while options available include strategic finance, human resource management and strategic planning are explored. You also have the opportunity to examine a real life organisational problem. A wide range of organisations from across the region support us in doing this. It is not a work placement, but an opportunity to operate as a junior manager might do and put into practice what has been studied. The organisations include local and regional authorities, national retailers, logistics businesses and breweries.
Work experience
This course provides you with the opportunity to take a work based learning module in year two and the opportunity for a placement year between years two and three. Students have undertaken a variety of interesting placements and are often given responsibility very early on in their placement years.
During their time with us, past students have worked for a large Kent-based road haulage company, a large manufacturer of power generation equipment, a global freight forwarding business, as well as for a major UK retailer.
