Logistics, B.Eng.
This bachelor’s programme is one of our Twin Programmes, i.e. the Logistics programme taught in English (IBL) is basically identical to the Logistics programme mainly taught in German (BL). During the course of studies, students may switch between programmes/languages and thus acquire a Twin Certificate at the end.
By intertwining logistic content with technical subject areas, the Bachelor's programme Logistics - independent from the language of instruction - has above-average career perspectives and employment security. Our lecturers - previously often in top management positions of companies with lots of opportunity to gather ample experience - are teaching not only current, but also future-oriented skills and knowledge. Teaching contents are provided in internationally oriented, mostly English taught classes (BL) or completely English taught classes (IBL) by seminar-like lectures and projects. Among various case studies and to prepare students as good and as practice-oriented as possible for their future careers, there are two comprehensive projects carried out throughout a whole semester. These projects take place in cooperation with companies so that a student group solves an actual and current logistic challenge within the respective company.

Additionally, there are modular classes like material flow systems, technical logistics, supply chain management, international logistics, strategic purchasing, logistics services (semesters 4 to 6). Moreover, the programme includes two projects in industry and a 20-week internship plus seminar in the sixth semester.

Pick programmesCareer
With this degree you can choose from a wide variety of occupational fields. Here, "Supply Chain Management" is the formative concept: planning, implementing and controlling supply chains between industry, commerce, service providers, logistics services and the final users. In material flows, in-house logistics departments and external logistics service providers take over functions in transporting, storing and turnover of materials. In these value chains, logistics experts are responsible to plan and continuously improve technical and organisational logistics system in such a way that stocks are as low as possible, their availabilty, however, high while at the same time costs are to be as low as possible.
