Transport and logistics are vital to modern economies, and understanding the economics and finance behind them is essential for sustainable growth and strategic planning. This course introduces learners to key concepts in transport and logistics while integrating the essential principles of economics and finance. Through this combination, students will examine how transport networks are financed, how logistical systems function within economic frameworks, and how financial strategies impact transportation development.

The course delves into topics such as supply chain economics, transport infrastructure investment, cost-benefit analysis, pricing strategies, and financial planning in the transport sector. A strong emphasis is placed on analysing the efficiency of logistical operations through economic models, as well as evaluating funding sources, budgeting, and economic regulation affecting the movement of goods and people.
