PG Diploma in Data Science for Logistics

With the objective of creating skilled technical resources for optimisation of logistics processes, LSC has designed and launched a Post Graduate Diploma in Data Science for Logistics. The Diploma programme is open for graduates in any discipline with a fair knowledge of mathematics and IT. The programme has two teaching semesters and one Apprenticeship Semester. Students of this programme is given a fair immersion in logistics concepts for two semesters. An industry project is given to them for 15 days in between Semesters I and II, to identify potentials for improving logistics processes. A spell of Apprenticeship for six months is assigned to students in the same company where they did their industry projects. The programme encourages students to solve logistics optimisation issues in active consultations with their faculty members and company executives.
