What you will learn
You first learn the basics of modern logistics. In addition to strategic logistics management and the planning of complex supply chains, this also includes optimising processes with the help of business intelligence and big data. You will learn how databases work, which parts of the supply chain can best be automated and how to think about logistics processes in a business context. The focus of your studies is on mastering IT technology, which has made and still makes quantum leaps in logistics possible. You can control complex supply chains from purchasing to delivery with enterprise resource planning systems such as SAP S/4HANA. You know how to control automated warehouse logistics with warehouse management software. You understand how new software is introduced, adapted and tested to achieve the greatest possible benefit. With your rich interdisciplinary toolbox, you are optimally prepared to design and manage the supply chains of the future.
Our innovative approach that pays off
While supply chains used to be viewed purely from a business perspective, they are no longer conceivable without digital tools. This makes experts who are at home in both worlds and who understand logistics and can use IT technology competently all the more sought-after. As a specialist in digital supply chain management, you are in demand on the market and have excellent prospects for the future.
Flexibility at its best - Our bridge semester
In addition to the high-quality transfer of knowledge in teaching according to the CORE principle and thus in addition to the training of technical, social and methodical competence application, the personal development of the students is also important to our university. Therefore, we have now introduced the so-called bridging semester in order to offer a maximum of flexibility for exactly this personal development. How does this work and what are the requirements? Quite simply.
You have reached 90 CP in your Master´s degree program? Perfect. We now offer you two options:
- You continue your studies and graduate as soon as possible
- You take a semester break and use this time to find a job, do internships, get a taste of companies, learn languages, acquire cultural competencies or whatever enhances your skills. You do not have to pay any monthly fees for this semester. Of course, your studies will continue for one more semester.
You can use this bridging semester as a bridging semester at the earliest after reaching 90 CPs and at the earliest after finishing the 3th semester in terms of personal and professional development and remain enrolled. A fee is charged for this semester, but the last semester is then free of charge. The bridging semester is limited to one semester. You can indicate yourself if you have reached the required CP before the bridging semester.
The possibility to apply for a semester off remains. The bridging semester is a parallel existing attractive alternative.
