Logistics and Distribution Institute (LODI)
Description
The Logistics and Distribution Institute (LoDI) of the University of Louisville was established in 1998 to develop cutting-edge instructional programs and curricula for students and local business employees seeking career-long education and training in logistics and distribution. LoDI is also responsible for sustaining a highquality research environment by facilitating interdisciplinary and applications-oriented research that will benefit both the Louisville academic and business communities.
The Institute is an interdepartmental effort with components located in the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Business and Public Administration, and the J. B. Speed School of Engineering. Expertise from all schools is critical in addressing the different aspects of logistics and distribution, including the integration of planning, design, manufacturing, purchasing, fielding, marketing, warehousing, transportation, materials handling, maintenance, reliability, scheduling, technology support, and management.
