Academic Freedom to Discover Your Purpose
Open Curriculum Design at Atlantic International University

The Associate of Logistics program helps students to understand the principles, management, economics, finances, and other issues associated with the global air, maritime, logistics, and transportation systems of the world by providing them with tools necessary to learn of the cutting edge processes, companies, and standards associated with transportation and logistics management. The Associate of Logistics program is offered online via distance learning. After evaluating both academic record and life experience, AIU staff working in conjunction with Faculty and Academic Advisors will assist students in setting up a custom-made program, designed on an individual basis. This flexibility to meet student needs is seldom found in other distance learning programs. Our online program does not require all students to take the same subjects/courses, use the same books, or learning materials. Instead, the online Associate of Logistics curriculum is designed individually by the student and academic advisor.

It specifically addresses strengths and weaknesses with respect to market opportunities in the student’s major and intended field of work. Understanding that industry and geographic factors should influence the content of the curriculum instead of a standardized one-fits-all design is the hallmark of AIU’s unique approach to adult education. This philosophy addresses the dynamic and constantly changing environment of working professionals by helping adult students in reaching their professional and personal goals within the scope of the degree program.
