A Degree in International Logistics and Trade Finance is an uncommon Business degree and therefore more in demand for local as well as overseas employment. Jobs in Logistics and Trade Finance are directly related to major companies and developed countries and consequently command high salaries.

Logistics encompasses many events and activities between point of origin and point of consumption of a product or service. This includes inbound and outbound transportation management, fleet management, warehousing, materials handling, order fulfilment, logistics network design, inventory management, supply and demand planning, third-party logistics management, and other support services.

The course aims to equip students with the knowledge and skills that you require to become effective logistics and supply chain managers. The course not only aims to develop skills in logistics from an international perspective but also provides you with knowledge and understanding of economic, political and financial risk factors affecting the world economy.
