Introduction
This degree is designed to prepare students for management careers in the dynamic and internationally-focused maritime and logistics industries and related areas. This course is unique because it combines core business principles, for example accounting, finance, marketing, economics, business law and strategic management with more specific maritime industry units of study, such as ports and terminal management, commercial shipping and maritime economics. These are studied in combination with logistics-based units of study, to provide the necessary focus and an in-depth appreciation of the issues confronting the maritime and logistics industries. The course culminates with the Maritime and LogisticsManagement Project that requires students to apply business research techniques to contemporary issues in the maritime and logistics industries.
The course is designed to prepare students for management careers in shipping, ports and terminals, freight forwarding, transport, import and export businesses, and other related areas.
