Welcome to the Logistics Department at UAA!
"The logistics program at UAA is a perfect
example of the University and the
Municipality working together in partnership
to meet the economic development challenges
for the future of Anchorage. We value the
logistics program and what it means to the
community."
-George Wuerch, Mayor of Anchorage
"The field of logistics has emerged as one
of the highest paying careers for college
students, second only to engineering."
-Rick Mystrom, Mayor of Anchorage
"Alaska will continue to be the nation's hub
for air cargo trans shipment. UAA must
continue its path to becoming the nation's
hub for the field of logistics."
-Mark Hamilton, President, University
of Alaska Statewide System
"Logistics has combined with Anchorage's
'top of the world' geographic advantage to
make our airport the largest trans shipper
of air cargo in North America. Increasingly,
logistics is the mechanism through which the
world does business today. Not surprisingly,
it is one of UAA's most dynamic and
innovative new programs."
-Lee Gorsuch, UAA Chancellor
"Few understand logistics better than
Alaskans. Shaped by the frontier heritage of
vast distances, honed by decades of industry
and partnerships, and positioned at the
transportation crossroad of the world,
Alaska is strategically located relative to
the world's great markets. Concentrated
study of logistics and global supply chain
management is widely recognized as a
requisite for competitive advantage. That is
what the UAA Logistics Program is all
about."
-Tom Case, Dean, College of Business
& Public Policy
"Global Supply Chain Management is the
ability to coordinate business functions
into a seamless, efficient, and dynamic
system. A recent U.S. News and World Report
career guide predicts that supply chain
management will be one of the 20 hottest
career paths in this century."
-Hayden Green, Dean Emeritus, College
of Business & Public Policy
"The success of the Logistics and Supply
Chain Management programs at the University
underscores industry's growing need for
personnel with education in these
disciplines.
When the University, the Municipality, and
industry teamed up to develop and launch the
Logistics and Supply Chain Management
programs at UAA, it proved that
public-private partnerships are key to
developing specialized education for growth
industries."
-Frank Peake, Vice President of
Strategic Planning, CSX Lines of Alaska
"As a long time provider of multimodal
transportation and logistic services to
Alaska, Lynden fully supports the UAA
Logistics Program. The University's role in
providing well educated and trained
personnel to the industry can only result in
a better level of service being provided to
our clients and customers within the State
of Alaska."
-David W. Haugen, Vice President,
