Logistics Management
Books | Journals | Databases | Web Sites
From the Princeton Review:
You’re the planner of the group, the one who sets the time, date, place, and number of cars needed for the road trip to the beach. You know the absolute latest time you can drop your date off and still make it home before your curfew, partly because you know how many stoplights lie between her house and yours. (Or maybe you know how to use the back roads to avoid said stoplights altogether). You’ve mapped it all out on your laptop or in your palm pilot. Some people say that you’re bossy, controlling, and detail-orientated. You know better, though. You know that this is all just preparation for that future in Logistics Management you’ve been planning since you timed how long it would take to get from the cafeteria to the playground in kindergarten.
