The MBA program “Logistics Management” is intended for candidates with a strong interest in understanding logistics and operations – in either manufacturing or service industries. The program has a managerial focus and it is therefore also valuable to students with an interest in general management. It is particularly valuable for those who see their careers in operations over the coming decade or who see themselves consulting in operations for client businesses. Students acquire an in-depth knowledge and understanding of advanced logistics, operations, manufacturing, distribution and supply chain management issues, concepts, tools and applications. They develop the ability to identify strategic issues in operations, position a company for competitive advantage using operations and logistics, align corporate and operations strategy, design the right supply chain for your product, enable mass customization, create a virtually integrated company and collaborate in the supply chain. Issues include postponement, speculation, partner-shipping, new product development, efficient consumer response, vendor managed inventory, the impact of Internet Technology on supply chains and e-commerce.

Since January 2008 this program is the first and the only one in Germany which is accredited by the European Logistics Association (ELA) according to the Supervisory/Operational Level introduced by the ELA.

Since December 2009 the program is accredited by the Zentrale Evaluations- und Akkreditierungsagentur (ZEvA).
