What you'll learn for your future?
The programme offers students an opportunity to take an in-depth study through the lens of transport and logistics systems. The insights will foster the critical discourse necessary to deepen their understanding of the limitations of the current methodological approaches to address global logistics challenges.
Anchored in scientific rigour and industry insights, the MSc in Logistics, Engineering and Management programme draws connections between traditional disciplines of logistics and multiple interrelated disciplines of environmental science, sociology, and economics that equip students with the foresight and business acumen to orchestrate strategies that are highly sensitive to the currents of the landscape the supply chain is operating in.
Whether is it operating the high-stakes logistics in healthcare industry or managing fast-moving consumer goods logistics in the consumer industry, graduates are not only knowledgeable of the unique characteristics of each industry, but they are also well equipped to command appropriate mathematical modelling approaches and computer-based solutions to integrate the transport, storage and handling of goods and products throughout the process of manufacturing, distribution, consumption and disposal.
Graduates will be able to work in the following areas (but not limited to): Procurement Specialist, Supply Chain Analyst, Logistics and Distribution Engineer, Inventory Analyst, Process Engineer, Managing Director Logistics, Supply Chain Solutions Architect, Supply Chain Manager, Warehouse Design and Management Planner.

Awarded by TUM, the M.Sc. in Logistics Engineering and Management programme is a two-year full-time research and application-focused programme (120 credits) comprising 15 modules (eleven core modules and four elective modules). At the final stage of the study, students are required to do an industrial internship and write a master thesis.
Students will learn in-depth the latest mathematical modelling approaches and computer-based support solutions, cutting through multiple sacks of disparate data to deploy real-time tracking, predictive analytics, and enhanced decision-making to address formal problem models and achieve an efficient supply chain system.
The Students deep dives into the planning, designing, and managing of a logistics system for materials and goods while cultivating a deep understanding of the dynamics in transport and logistics, which is essential to developing an effective supply chain system for the flow of goods and materials in the whole value chain.
Focusing on strategies to optimise the economic value of supply chains in the human, digital, and resource areas, students will gain the know-how to empower people, mobilise resources, and leverage technology to increase productivity and respond to the shifting environment to implement an economically sustainable supply chain.
