Experiential Learning Opportunities

Through our partnership with PayCargo, our students have the opportunity to:

  • Gain new perspectives on supply chain management and logistical optimization by visiting company headquarters. In previous years, students have visited Costa Farms, one of the largest horticultural growers in the world, and American Airlines headquarters in Texas.
  • Attend international conferences to engage with industry experts. For example, our students have traveled to Brussels Airport to participate in the TIACA Executive Summit, discussing the future of airfreight with air cargo industry leaders.
  • Engage with industry leaders through our speaker series, where complex logistics challenges are addressed, and innovative solutions are shared.
  • Visit Port of Miami and Port Everglades to tour the cargo area, cruise terminals, pilots' house, and more, gaining firsthand insights into port operations.
  • Interact with global leaders who provide insightful perspectives on the logistics and supply chain industry, including the impact of geopolitics and other forces.
