E-commerce has been growing steadily into one of the most important sales channels for companies over the past few decades. Besides national online retail, in particular cross-border e-commerce is on the rise globally. However, e-commerce growth relies on efficient logistics systems to succeed. The Master in E-Commerce & Logistics (MSc) at Fresenius University of Applied Sciences offers students a unique insight into both industries and into both the design and functioning of their interplay.
In the first semester, the e-commerce and logistics industry will be introduced in general (markets). The second semester will be devoted to application, by focusing on the necessary IT solutions that an e-commerce player needs to
employ, as well as on warehousing, fulfillment, and (parcel) delivery. Building on these basics for a company to function, the third semester will deep-dive into how to ensure progress in e-commerce businesses.
The Master in E-Commerce & Logistics (MSc) will end with learning how to strengthen online retail and supply chain management.
