Joint Master's programme "Digital Logistics Management" at TH Wildau approved: Start in winter semester 2023/2024
After successfully revising the general examination regulations, the "Digital Logistics Management" degree programme at TH Wildau has been officially approved by the Ministry of Science, Research and Culture (MWFK) of the State of Brandenburg for the winter semester 2023/2024. Students from all over the world now have the opportunity to complete a "Master of Engineering" in the versatile, cutting-edge and challenging professional environment of digital logistics management.
A new joint master's programme, "Digital Logistics Management" (DLM), will start at Wildau University of Applied Sciences (TH Wildau) in the winter semester 2023/2024. A joint degree programme is a joint degree programme offered by a domestic university together with one or more foreign universities and leading to a joint degree.
With the start of the winter semester in autumn 2022/2023, the first seven students were enrolled at Caucasus University (CU) in Tbilisi, Georgia. "All seven have successfully completed the first two semesters at CU and so we will be able to welcome them to TH Wildau in September, including two students with a twelve-month DAAD scholarship," says a delighted Dr Andreas Dudlik, who is supervising the project under the direction of Prof Frank Gillert, Professor of Logistics Management at TH Wildau. The application and selection of the 2nd cohort of international students at CU will then take place from July to the beginning of September 2023.
Background
The Joint Master's programme is conducted as a continuing education programme in English and is designed for four semesters. The content of the programme is oriented towards the diverse requirements in logistics: digitalisation of the economy, personal leadership, competences in project management, sustainable development in technical and ecological topics as well as the application of strategies in the field of logistics and supply chain management. The universities are supported in this by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
Internationalisation on the "Silk Road
TH Wildau has been active in the field of logistics education in Georgia for many years and has already successfully implemented a joint double degree with the Georgian Technical University (GTU) in the Bachelor's area from 2015 to 2021. It is also involved in regular student and lecturer exchanges, the establishment of laboratories and the implementation of joint workshops.
With the establishment of the Joint Master's programme DLM in the region, international cooperation along the "New Silk Road" is to be further expanded. In view of the economic development of the region, it is expected that companies will increasingly set up branches there and that skilled workers will be needed, especially in the field of logistics.
Caucasus University began in 1998 with the founding of the Caucasus School of Business. The university offers Bachelor's and Master's programmes as well as doctorates in ten departments. With 164 partner universities in 54 countries, the university is strongly networked internationally and has a lot of experience in double degree programmes and exchange programmes.
