Assessment and permitted materials

A total of 100% can be obtained by:
- homework assignments (15%; students MUST be present in class and prepared to present the exercises in class upon request)
- a term project (20%)
- a written midterm exam (30%; no course material allowed)
- a written final exam (35%; no course material allowed)

At least 50% have to be obtained for a positive grade. The other grades are distributed as follows:
4: 50% to <63%
3: 63% to <75%
2: 75% to <88%
1: 88% to 100%

Cheating during an examination will be sanctioned according to the university's constitution in its current form (i.e., the entire course will not be graded but marked as cheated and counted as one attempt). Signing for another student will be counted as cheating as well (also during homework sessions).

Students who want to take part in an exam are required to bring their student ID. Otherwise, they will be asked to go to the secretary's office to make a copy of the alternative ID (driver's licence, passport, etc.). Non-official IDs (bank cards, Vorteilscards, etc.) will NOT be accepted without any exceptions. This procedure will not extend the duration of the examination.

The students' IDs will be checked only after handing out the examination sheets. Students who are not on the list or don't have a valid identification card will not be allowed to participate in the examination even if they were already handed an examination sheet.

Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Globalisation of sourcing, manufacturing, and distribution activities requires an effective design and efficient operation of logistics processes. The course provides the participants with a broad understanding of supply chain design and operations in an international context. Besides institutional aspects of global logistics networks and markets, planning concepts to support strategic, tactical and operational decisions in logistics are presented. Special topics covered in this course include recent developments in humanitarian, reverse and service logistics.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Examination topics

Lectures introduce problems and concepts in international logistics. Guest lectures from invited practitioners show real world challenges and implications. The lectures are supported by home assignments and case study discussions. To understand the overall complexity of global logistics networks, a business game will be played during the course of the semester.

Reading list

A literature list will be distributed after the start of the course.
