Show Technology Management-Logistics MANAGEMENT-LOGISTICS PROGRAM Dix W. Cloward, Director Robert G. Stein, Associate Professor Bachelor of Science Degree in Management-Logistics Description: The Management-Logistics curriculum is administered by the School of Technology and provides a unique and practical approach to educating the adult student in the rapidly growing field of logistics. The program is unique in that the student may complete the general education requirements prior to, during, or after completing the courses in the logistics major. Education: The major is divided into core courses, which are required by all students intending to complete a baccalaureate degree, and six specialty areas of which the student may select one. These areas include: (1) Data Automation, (2) Distribution Logistics, (3) Logistics Management, (4) Procurement, (5) Production Management, (6) Quality Assurance. Employment Outlook: Because this is a relatively new academic program, and the fact that the demand for logisticians is rapidly increasing, job opportunities are exceptionally good, both in private and public sectors. Related Careers: Systems Management, Inventory Management, Transportation, Procurement and Production Management. Program: Management-LogisticsBachelor Degree I. General Requirements: A.
