Bachelor of Commerce in Business Operations with Transport Economics 2020-2023
North-West University

I hold a Bachelor of Commerce in Business Operations with Transport Economics, which I completed in 2023 with distinction (cum laude) from North-West University. During my studies, I developed a deep understanding of business operations, logistics, and transport economics, with a focus on both practical application and strategic thinking. I am also honoured to be a member of the Golden Key Honours Society, which recognizes the top-performing students globally for their academic excellence. Throughout my degree, I undertook a variety of core modules that shaped my expertise. These include Logistics Decision Support, where I learned how to apply data-driven approaches to optimize logistics decision-making processes, and Logistics Strategy & Customer Service, which emphasized the importance of aligning logistics with customer satisfaction to enhance supply chain efficiency. Additionally, I explored Logistics Business Systems, focusing on integrated systems such as ERP to improve operational workflows. I also gained international insight through International Transport Logistics & Clearing, where I studied freight forwarding, customs clearing, and global transport regulations. My understanding of the broader transport landscape was further enhanced by specialized modules like Aviation Studies, Maritime Transport Studies, Rail Transport Studies, and Road Freight Transport. These modules provided me with in-depth knowledge of the operational and regulatory challenges across various modes of transport.Moreover, courses such as Transportation Planning and Transportation Policy Formulation & Analysis allowed me to delve into the strategic and policy aspects of the transport sector, equipping me with the skills to assess transportation networks and their socio-economic impacts. With a strong foundation in economics from modules like Macro-Economics, Micro-Economics, and Transport Economics, I am adept at analysing market trends, economic policies, and their impact on transport systems. This qualification has given me a comprehensive view of the transport and logistics industry, enabling me to approach challenges from both an operational and strategic perspective. I'm passionate about contributing to the future of the logistics and transport sectors and am eager to apply my knowledge and skills in a dynamic, growth-oriented environment
