Course detail

Logistics and Plant Transport

FSI-QLVAcad. year: 2022/2023

The course “Logistics and in-house transport” teaches students about concepts of logistics chain management, types of inter-object and in-house transport and principles of warehouse management. Students will learn the tools of business process management. Graduates of the course will gain knowledge about the methodology of planning logistic processes from the preparatory phase and system analysis to the use of modern computer tools including discrete material flow simulation. The course includes current trends in the field of business process digitization.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students will gain knowledge of logistic approaches to handling traffic-handling processes. They are able to identify appropriate logistic indicators for transport-handling systems and carry out their evaluation.

Prerequisites

Successful completion of the course is conditional on the basic knowledge of technical mechanics, physics and mathematics.

Co-requisites
