Very good course

The information is given in an enjoyable, interesting, and easy-to-take way. Also, there were examples of the new sustainable logistics solutions that are already implemented into the logistics infrastructure of cities, for example E-highways. This course is amazing! Thanks to the lecturers and EIT Academy! Best regards, Aziza Azamatovna Talaspayeva from Kazakhstan!
