Université de Stellenbosch (Afrique du Sud)
Online only
An undergraduate foundation in maritime logistics, dry port management, AfCFTA customs rules of origin, and cross-border transport economics. Students earn 2 independent accredited diplomas with a 65% / 35% international credit split. BA in International Trade & Corridor Logistics (Dual Award) is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 36 months, and the credit total is 120. Students move from Flow of goods through Flow of goods; Inventory and capacity; Disruption; Operations project; Flow of goods (BAX-D202), and finish on Flow of goods (BAX-D202). Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students find where time or cost is lost and recommend one operational change. Reading is a process map, a capacity note, and a disruption case. The artefact a marker expects is a recommendation for one lane, site, or service with the cost and the risk. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Dual Bachelor credentials recognized by leading shipping and logistics conglomerates Practical case studies on African transport corridors (Northern, Central, Walvis Bay) Bilingual customs compliance and trade documentation workflows Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
