Course content
Acting "logistically" - means acting internationally ...

What are the advantages of the dual Bachelor's degree program in Logistics?
The content structure of the course combines science and business and thus empiricism and experience.
Methodical knowledge in the field of logistics is not only taught, but directly applied. It is based on a sound business education.
Social and intercultural competence, as well as language skills, are taught and practiced throughout the degree programs.
The course allows students to enter the job market immediately while simultaneously gaining qualifications.
Abroad
The international orientation of the degree programs is promoted on the one hand by the integration of foreign companies, via the semester abroad or the internship abroad, and on the other hand by working on study projects with an international orientation.
A period of study at a foreign university or, alternatively, a practical phase abroad can be completed as a compulsory elective module in the 6th semester.
- During the practical phase abroad, students should acquire practical knowledge in a selected area of logistics in a commercial enterprise or a business-related organization abroad. In addition to the application of acquired specialist knowledge, the aim is to acquire application-oriented and specialist language skills.
- If the study abroad program takes place at a partner university of the Ludwigshafen University of Business and Society, the International Office of the University and the Department of Services & Consulting will assist in the search and selection of suitable foreign universities.
