What you will study
What you study
Logistics is about organising and managing the flow of products, services and information from raw materials to the end user. For many industrial and service companies, good logistics is a key competitive factor. This programme gives you analytical and managerial skills to design, plan and improve logistics and supply chain systems. That covers purchasing and supply management, production and inventory planning, distribution, and transport management. A central theme is how different actors and processes connect across value chains, which is supply chain management.
Logistics is interdisciplinary. It builds on economics, information and communication technology (ICT), business administration, organisation and management, and quantitative methods including mathematics, operations research and statistics. You need a broad understanding of the field and the ability to weigh alternatives to reach well-founded solutions. The source page names these courses and elements: LOG718 Prep. Course in Basic Statistics, LOG904 Seminars in Logistics, and the master's thesis, which can be done in collaboration with a business.
How the programme is organised
The degree is 120 ECTS over two years, full time, on the Molde campus, starting in autumn. It is made up of 90 ECTS of coursework and a 30 ECTS master's thesis. Teaching is entirely in English, and the programme includes students from both within and outside Europe. That means you work in diverse teams and strengthen your academic and professional English. The page also mentions a semester abroad as part of the programme. Study plans are published for each cohort.
Who it suits
This suits someone who likes solving problems where several factors pull in different directions. You should be comfortable with numbers, since mathematics, operations research and statistics are part of the mix, and the programme includes a preparatory course in basic statistics. If you want to work on purchasing, production planning, distribution or transport, and you enjoy coordinating people and processes across a value chain, this is a good fit. The job market for graduates with a master's in logistics is described as generally strong, because these skills are needed across industries and organisations.
