Course Description:
Logistics is moving the right goods to the right place at the right time for the right price at the right quality. This course is designed to build a workforce to capitalize on the projections from the Commonwealth Center of Advanced Logistics Systems (CCALS) to meet the rapidly increasing demand for high-skilled, high-wage supply chain and logistics systems professionals. This course requires students to have completed the Global Logistics and Enterprise Systems I and worked with global logistics processes in a virtual enterprise systems environment. Advanced topics addressed by this course include managing material handling, transportation issues, accounting and finance, production processes, process integration, facility location decisions, and international logistics. Contextual instruction and student participation in co-curricular career and technical student organization (CTSO) activities will develop leadership, interpersonal, and career skills. High-quality work-based learning (HQWBL) will provide experiential learning opportunities related to students' career goals and/or interests, integrated with instruction, and performed in partnership with local businesses and organizations.
