Competence Certificate

The assessment (Prüfungsleistung anderer Art) consists of the following assignments:

  • 40% assessment of the final case study as individual performance,
  • 60% semester evaluation which includes working on 5 case studies and defending those (For both assessment types, the best 4 of 5 tries count for the final grade.):
    • 40% assessment of the result of the case studies as group work,
    • 20% assessment of the oral examination during the case study colloquiums as individual performance.

A detailed description of the learning control can be found under T-MACH-102151.

  • is able to illustrate logistic systems with adequate accuracy by using simple models,
  • is able to realize coherences within logistic systems,
  • is able to evaluate logistic systems by using the learnt methods.

Prerequisites

none

Content

The module Material Flow in Logistic Systems provides comprehensive and well-founded basics for the main topics of logistics. Within the lectures, the interaction between several components of logistic systems will be shown. The module focuses on technical characteristics of material handling systems as well as on methods for illustrating and evaluating logistics systems. To gain a deeper understanding, the course is accompanied by exercises and case studies.
