This programme equips students with an understanding of logistics and transport management and provides them with a wide understanding of how organisations incorporate and manage these functions. Students are also taught key practical skills in the specialist subject areas required for a career in business, purchasing and supply chain management.

The main systems for measuring this are IELTS with a minimum score of 6.0 for degree programmes or TOEFL with a minimum score of 550 for degree programmes.
