Every company has some aspect of logistics within it. We handle everything from procurement to delivery, and all the steps in between. Due to the rapid increase in international trade, firms require supply chain and logistics-based solutions to operate efficiently. This need has accelerated the demand for logistics professionals who possess the knowledge and skills needed to manage sophisticated systems within the supply chain. 75% of graduates from the T&L program receive job offers in their field.
The profession offers excellent salaries and provides advancement opportunities both in the United States and internationally.

Internships
The UNF Transportation and Logistics Flagship Program offers internship opportunities to provide students with first-hand experience and the ability to apply educational concepts to problems and issues confronting organizations doing business in transportation, logistics and supply chain management. The requirements for semester long internships for academic credit are in the T&L Internship Handbook. Internships for academic credit are not required in the T&L program of study; however, most students obtain part-time internships without receiving academic credit in order to gain practical experience before graduation. Students who are looking for internships and full-time positions are encouraged to attend the T&L Career Day and Employer Expo in February and October.
