About Giscl
The School of Economics and Management, BJTU and Rotterdam School of Management, EUR are the founding members of the Global Institute of Supply Chain and Logistics (GISCL). More world-class logistics research institutes will be included according to the regulations. The research work of supply chain and logistics with global view would provide intellectual support for the policy-making of supply chain and logistics in the new circumstances. With the feature and advantage of the logistics research on rail transit, the Logistics Management of Beijing Jiaotong University is leading domestically and also has an important influence across the globe. The Rotterdam School of Management, ErasmusUniversity is a world-class business school, leading the world in the field of cargo shipping. The powerful combination of both sides would definitely give full play to the respective academic advantages on logistics research, develop the Institute into the scientific research platform with characteristics and high level as well as become the important think tank for the governments, industries and enterprises.
The Global Institute of Supply Chain and Logistics positions itself as the open and world-class research institute. Apart from the excellent scholars from BJTU and EUR, it will also bring together first-class experts from all over the world to aim at the research front of global supply chain and logistics management, international logistics under China’s new economic situation and issues regarding cross-border E-commerce, big data and sustainable development. It is dedicated to achieving research breakthroughs, enriching fundamental theories of supply chain and logistics and promoting the practice development and theory innovation of logistics management.
The Institute centers on the implementation of national strategies and conducts in-depth research on the significant issues of the current development of logistics that need urgent solution. Currently, the Institute will focus on the construction and optimization of the transportation and distribution network for the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area as well as the research work of such frontier subjects as cargo shipping, port logistics, multimodal transport system design of high-speed railway transportation, operation optimization and risk management.
