Trier University of Applied SciencesMaster in Business Administration and Engineering

Education

Emphasis Sustainable Logistics Manage-mentThe Masters course in Business Administrati-on and Engineering allows graduates with a Bachelor or Diploma degree or similar economics/technical qualifi cation to achieve a professional scientifi c Masters degree (M. Sc.) in the following two areas:

• Sustainable Logistics Management

• Business Management in Utility and Waste Management

Course Details

This practical course takes 4 semesters and paves the way for access to the higher echelons of Ger-man public service and further doctoral studies.

The Masters course in Business Administration and Engineering is designed to deepen know-ledge within the two areas mentioned above. Graduates are able to independently fi nd and implement solutions for problematic areas that were previously unknown; above all they are developers.

The Masters course in Business Administration and Engineering is an inter-disciplinary course and covers mathematics, natural and industrial engi-neering and economics and includes supplemen-tary modules such as law and communication. Even though scientifi c, technical and economic components are given roughly equal weight, an average of nine out of ten graduates end up in business positions.


Students specializing in Sustainable Logistics Ma-nagement deepen their understanding of Process and Logistics Management. Graduates should be able to analyze intra- and inter-company logistic processes, recognize weak points and optimiza-tion potential as well as design process-oriented holistic and sustainable logistics chains. Gradu-ates are taught procedures, methods and data processing techniques to design process-oriented

companies. They also learn to tackle logistics issu-es in complex added-value chains. The following areas (amongst others) are covered in detail: supply chain management, recycling and waste logistics, distribution and transport logistics, and supplier relationship management.
