The relevance of education:

Recently, no one but a narrow number of people knew what logistics was. Now the industry is developing rapidly, no large company is without a logistics department, and there is therefore great potential for career advancement and development in the logistics industry as a whole. Whereas organizations used to have one or a few people in charge of logistics, there are now whole departments, structures, divisions and teams. The role of distributors is being increasingly reduced, and deliveries are being made directly from the manufacturer.

Today, large-scale projects are being implemented in the Russian Far East in a wide range of areas, and all of them involve dealing with logistics issues. Therefore, specialists in transport and production logistics are badly needed, and employers are willing to take on young specialists with little work experience on good starting conditions.
