To cope with the rapid development of logistics in Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland with mounting demand for talents, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) officially established the Department of Logistics on 1 September 2003, after a reorganisation incorporating the former Department of Shipping and Transport Logistics and part of the former Department of Management. In September 2008, PolyU made another move to rename the Department as Department of Logistics and Maritime Studies to better reflect the Department's strengths and growing portfolio. Currently, PolyU is the sole provider of maritime education at the tertiary level in Hong Kong. We provide innovation-driven education and scholarship in logistics and maritime studies through quality research, professional training and consulting activities in the fields of shipping, transport, supply chain and operations management. We sincerely invite you to explore our website to learn about our programme, our cutting-edge research, and our distinguished faculty. We look forward to walking the path of your life journey together with you.
