  • Lack of vocation and talent stirs BERGÉ to develop its own Master’s degree in Maritime Business Management and Associated Logistics to generate specialised profiles.

BERGÉ and the University of Cantabria will launch in September a new edition of their Master’s degree in Maritime Business Management and Associated Logistics, in order to develop specialised profiles that help alleviate the difficulties that the logistics sector has in filling vacancies. In fact, in Spain, two out of every ten unfilled positions in all sectors are from logistics.

BERGÉ’s Master allows the generation of profiles adapted to the needs of companies, by focusing training on knowledge of the latest innovations, on logistics 4.0 and on generating capabilities to find the most efficient solution to day-to-day problems of this business.

The training is designed for senior naval or industrial engineers, or any speciality related to the maritime and logistics field, as well as recent graduates in Business Administration, Law and International Trade, as well as professionals who are already working and want to continue their training in a specialised programme in the sector.

The course, whose enrolment deadline is 15 September, consists of 1,500 hours in 60 credits –19.30 theoretical credits and 40.70 practical credits–, plus the preparation of the Master’s thesis and remunerated work placements in companies from the sector.

The educational content covers the maritime business and logistics in a cross-disciplinary way, from the freight forwarding activity, regular lines or maritime brokers, to customs management, consignment and loading and unloading of ships and storage, including the management of energy resources.
