Welcome to the School of International Business, Logistics and Supply Chains (IBLS).
Our vision is to be a globally leading IBLS school, recognised for world-class research excellence, outstanding student outcomes, and meaningful impact on policy and practice, while together creating a happy place to work. For us, that last point really matters. Culture is not something separate; it is what enables everything else.
At the School of IBLS, you will engage with distinguished faculty, diverse peers, and industry leaders in an environment designed to challenge and support you. IBLS is home to the Disciplines of International Business (IB) and Logistics and Supply Chain Management (LSCM) as well as the Institute of Transport and Logistics Studies (ITLS).
We are living in challenging times, which we see as opportunities to adapt and innovate. Climate change, geopolitical uncertainty and supply chain disruptions are making our field more relevant than ever. We are proud of our globally recognised teaching programs, world-class research and vibrant community, and we look forward to partnering with you to shape the future of business and policymaking.
I invite you to learn more about our School of IBLS and become part of our story.
