Advancement Prospects
Logistics engineers with three or more years of experience can advance to become senior logistics engineers. In addition to handling more complex projects, they supervise the work of logistics teams. They may become managers and heads of logistics departments. They may also advance in their careers by getting a master's degree in logistics engineering or a related field and by receiving certification in specialized areas. Some may leave salaried positions to start their own logistics companies.
