This exciting MSc, Master of Business Management, specialised in Logistics & Trade, challenges students to study at a high academic standard, combining case studies and research. However, the degree programme also has a real practical approach in its design - through project weeks, professional enquiry and a module of professional-based learning in which students complete a short work placement often linked directly to their final project.

The programme offers a combination master of business administration subjects and broader modules in economics and management. Through modules looking at global economics and strategic management, globalisation, society & culture, the programme will enable students to further develop their deeper knowledge of business management and administration.

The specialisation in Logistics & Trade specifically looks at the relationship of operations management, supply chains and logistics from a strategic perspective. Logistics and international trade have a clear link with international law and policies arising from it. Students also look at the concept of international joint ventures as part of this international master's programme.

Career Prospects

Graduating from a highly international institute such as Wittenborg, that places high emphasis on a combination of academic research and company and professional exposure, means that the career prospects of graduates from the Master of Business Management specialised in Logistics & Trade are multiple and global.

Often WUAS graduates aspire to continue their studies, with a DBA or a PhD research degree; however, many students move directly into business, sometimes as a result of their work placement, and their final project, which is often company based.

Examples of companies where alumni work range from leading global companies in manufacturing and machinery to more local specialised companies in the Netherlands or elsewhere in Western Europe.
