Certificate(s):

Logistics management is a unique business management program that prepares graduates for employment in the areas of logistics management, inventory control, materials management, and distribution. The field of logistics management includes occupations such as supervisors and/or managers of transportation, storage, and/or distribution; helpers, laborers, and/or hand material movers; and transportation/machine and vehicle material movers.

Persons employed in the storage and distribution arena plan, direct, and coordinate the storage and distribution operations within an organization. With the aid of industry-specific software, many managers are able to more efficiently prepare and review invoices, work orders, and consumption reports. Similarly, shipping and transportation managers utilize resource planning software systems to improve the speed and efficiency of shipping and receiving. These managers supervise and coordinate the activities of transportation and material moving machines and vehicle operators.

The AAS degree in logistics management is a four-semester program consisting of courses from the core academic area, business management, and logistics management. The degree program is located at Cy-Fair College. Kingwood College and Cy-Fair College offers the first line logistics leader certificate as a one-semester program of five courses.
