The Logistics Live! event is designed to provide students with key professional qualifications that are not included in university courses. The exchange with practitioners at management level is an important aspect of learning soft skills and teamwork in a complex business environment. The range of tasks of a logistics or supply chain manager provides orientation for the course. In this context, the Department of Business Management and Logistics offers a 2-day event for around 35 students every semester in cooperation with various companies.

The main content of Logistics Live! this semester includes factory tours, panel discussions, career opportunities, specialist presentations and CVs of logistics managers.

The skills acquired as part of Logistics Live! are intended to help students to successfully complete their studies in addition to preparing them for a successful career entry by supporting team-oriented problem solving, presentation techniques and problem- and practice-oriented thinking.
