The knowledge of international trade, international transport and global geography helps to identify these trends.

It also covers how the transport industry responds to international trade needs in terms of supply, organization, regulation, etc. The course aims to impart a geostrategic vision and an understanding of transport’s position in supply chain management via the transition from transport to logistics.
