It became a function that has a vital importance in terms of ‘logistics’ enterprises which was perceived as only a military concept years ago, later it was thought to be limited with “transportation and storage” activities but today its borders are still broadening.
That is why İzmir University of Economics, with its Logistics Undergraduate Program, aims to raise experts with global vision that dominate all functions of logistics.
