Logistics ManagementAAS Degree
Logistics management is a business management program that prepares graduates for employment in the areas of total supply chain management, including inventory control, materials management, and
transportation. The field of logistics management includes occupations such as supervisors and/or managers of transportation, warehousing, and materials management.
In addition, skilled-labor in logistics-related areas such as materials handling, equipment operators, and administration support, play an equally vital role. Logistics is now widely recognized as a critical driver of operational excellence, cost reduction, and customer service to an organization’s bottom line.
Three major functional areas of logistics are warehousing, transportation and materials management. Advances in Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Logistics Management Systems (LMS) technology have enabled logistics managers in each of these functional areas to gather, analyze and process data, resulting in automation and enhanced productivity. The demand for trained logistics professionals is growing nationally, resulting in career opportunities in high-growth industries and is projected to add substantial numbers of new jobs in Texas.

“One of the main reasons I chose the Logistics Management program at LSC is because I know other young professionals who have been able to use this degree to advance in the field. The program gives me the flexibility I need as a full time working mother of two. Many of the classes are available online, on-campus, and during mini-mesters. Everything I am learning is relevant, current, and the instructors have real life experience in the field. I have not even graduated yet and the program has already helped me advance in the world of logistics.” Alexandra Garza
