Center for Maritime Economics and Logistics MEL

About Center for Maritime Economics and Logistics MEL

The Erasmus Center for Maritime Economics and Logistics (MEL) is an inter-faculty unit of Erasmus University Rotterdam (EUR). The Center's objectives are to offer postgraduate and executive, in-company, educational programmes in Maritime Economics and Logistics and to constitute a focal research point in that field at EUR. MEL is part of Erasmus SmartPort Rotterdam. Research plays an important role in the Center's Activities. Maritime transport research at EUR has an applied character. This is due to the University's firm belief that notwithstanding the importance of 'research for the sake of research'​, in a discipline as applied as transport the value of research is demonstrated by society's willingness to underwrite it. In this regard, MEL academic staff have been instrumental in the formulation of the shipping and port policies of Europe and beyond. Most of this innovative research is finding its way to the classroom as well as to academic journals. The Center maintains strong links with the maritime industry worldwide thus providing its graduates with ample job opportunities and the benefit of being taught by professionals who have excelled in their field of expertise. This is further fostered by the partnerships the center has developed with leading institutions worldwide.
