Study one of the most dynamic areas of management at a university focused on logistics and prepare for international career opportunities with strong earning potential. More than half of the curriculum concentrates on forward-looking themes such as sustainability and digitalisation, so you’ll gain the knowledge needed to lead in a fast-changing business environment. All courses are taught in English.
You will benefit from a highly personalised learning environment — the student-to-instructor ratio is 12:1 and faculty work with students individually rather than applying a “one-size-fits-all” approach. The programme emphasises real-world application through case studies, project-based learning, business simulations and internships carried out with industry partners. The programme also develops an “operations mindset”: combining rigorous academic foundations with a hands-on, data-driven approach, attention to detail, strategic thinking and a commitment to sustainable, responsible leadership.
Studying in Germany gives you access to universities widely respected by employers and a stable economic environment. After graduation you are legally entitled to remain in Germany for up to 18 months to look for work. Hamburg offers a high quality of life, a vibrant international community and strong industry connections — an attractive base to start a global logistics or supply chain career.

Admission overview
This programme requires a recognised undergraduate degree and proof of English language skills. Applicants with degrees in business or economics are preferred, but related analytical backgrounds can be accepted if they include sufficient business coursework. If you are missing some business modules, there are alternative options to make up the shortfall.
Track-specific points
The required credit volume differs by study track: standard applicants need 180 ECTS, while fast-track and part‑time applicants must hold 210 ECTS. Candidates for the fast-track or part‑time tracks must also demonstrate international experience from their prior studies—either an academic term abroad or an internship abroad that was an official part of the Bachelor’s programme. If your degree certificate is not yet available, you may submit your transcript of records to apply.

Graduates are prepared for roles across logistics, supply chain management, operations, procurement, transport and e‑commerce. Typical career paths include supply chain analyst, operations manager, logistics consultant, sustainability manager and roles in freight, warehousing and distribution. The programme’s practical focus and industry links help students build relevant experience and employer connections.
Studying in Germany and graduating from KLU also provides a practical advantage: international graduates are eligible for up to 18 months of post-study work permission in Germany, which aids the transition into the local or wider European job market.
