AB  -        Developing Best Practices of Logistics & Transportation EducationLogistics and transportation has become one of the last frontiers that still remain to be conqueredby most businesses in the twenty first century. Yet this cannot be done unless all logistics andtransportation professionals, irrespective of their functional orientation and current jobresponsibilities, fundamentally understand the dynamics of how products move from one placeto another. This is one of the disciplines that is growing at a faster pace. The issue is that thenumber of graduates in this field is not meeting the current industry demand. Many U.S.institutions have recently developed and planning to develop educational degree programs in thisarea. This research analyzed the need for best practices and identified best practices in logisticsand transportation education.The term "Best Practice" has been used to describe "what works" best in a particular situation orenvironment. Best practices are an inherent part of education that exemplifies the connection andrelevance identified in educational research. They interject rigor into the curriculum bydeveloping thinking and problem-solving skills through integration and active learning. Bestpractices are applicable to all degree levels and provide the building blocks for instruction. Bestpractices motivate, engage and prompt students to learn and achieve. Students who receive abalanced curriculum and possess the knowledge, skills and abilities to transfer and connect ideasand concepts across disciplines are most likely succeed in their careers. We recently havelaunched a graduate program in Logistics, Trade and Transportation at our university. We foundsome practices that are really effective in building curriculum, program delivery, and programimprovement. We also found that some practice are not so good in our institution while they aregood in other institutions. This paper will share those effective best practices in logistics andtransportation education.
