Due to the circumstances around COVID-19, you will begin your studies online. However, when Government guidelines change, on-campus studies will be reintroduced.
The Australian Maritime College’s three-year Bachelor of Global Logistics and Maritime Management degree is designed to prepare students for management careers in the dynamic and internationally-focused maritime and logistics industries.

Ninety per cent of world trade is sent via the oceans, and it takes specialist skills to manage this vast industry. Global logistics and maritime management professionals are in demand around the world, and careers extend beyond the ports to policy, finance and insurance, and national security and customs.

This specialist business degree will provide you with high-level expertise and knowledge of maritime business in the global arena, international logistics services and strategies, as well as the structuring, operation and coordination of supply chains. Our program will equip graduates with the ability to contribute substantially to strategic decision making to maintain, enhance and drive these industries now and into the future.

Our Global Logistics and Maritime Management degree provides unmatched opportunities to engage directly with leaders from Australian and International maritime and logistics industries. You will learn from highly qualified teaching staff and invited speakers from logistics and maritime professions, industry workshops, and experience frequent site visits to warehouses and seaports.

From 2019 new Diploma and Associate Degree entry points have been introduced. Please refer to the P1E Diploma of Global Logistics and Maritime Management course page or the P2E Associate Degree in Global Logistics and Maritime Management course pages for more information.

The Bachelor of Global Logistics and Maritime Management provides graduates with high-level expertise and knowledge to understand the maritime business in the global arena, the world-wide spanning logistics services and strategies, as well as the structuring, operation and coordination of supply chains.

While exposing students to principles in financial management, international business, human resource management and strategic management, the course offers a clear focus on key components of the maritime and logistics industries, such as port management, logistics, supply chains, warehousing, procurement. It expands also to key principles in maritime economics, commercial, transport and maritime law.

With a focus on an applied approach to these critical areas, centred on strategic and analytical thinking and decision making skills, the course provides a unique educational experience with high level of relevance to specific global shipping and logistics industries. The program aims to produce graduates able to contribute substantially to strategic decision making to maintain, enhance and drive these industries now and into the future.

We maintain close links with prospective employers and industry associations to ensure you can access opportunities that support your career development. We will connect you with professionals from the maritime and logistics industries at our annual industry forum. Since 2018, the Maritime & Logistics Management Industry Forum has provided a medium for students to speak with senior managers from Tasmanian and interstate companies such as TasPorts, Agility Logistics, Toll Group, Australian National Lines (ANL), and Patrick Stevedore.  In addition to networking with industry professionals, attending the Forum will also enable you to learn about the scope of employment prospects available to those who graduate with AMC’s Bachelor of Global Logistics and Maritime Management.

Career outcomes

The maritime and the logistics industries underpin international business and world trade. They are a key element in sustainable development, and are tightly interconnected with human society: physically, socially and economically.

The Bachelor of Global Logistics and Maritime Management prepares students for management and senior administrative careers in private enterprises, industry organisations and governments.
