:: 13th International Logistics Summer School: SIMULATE THE FUTURE OF SUPPLY CHAINS FROM DIGITAL TWINS TO REAL DECISIONS
ERASMUS+ BIP · INTERNATIONAL SUMMER SCHOOL 2026
Simulate the Future of Supply Chains
From digital twins to real decisions.
What if you could test a supply chain decision before making it?
What if you could see disruptions before they happen, compare scenarios, and choose the smartest path forward?
The 13th International Logistics Summer School invites students to Celje, Slovenia, for an intensive international experience focused on simulation, digital twins, data-driven decision-making, and the future of
supply chains.
WHY THIS TOPIC?
Because supply chains no longer wait for perfect conditions.
Disruptions, uncertainty, changing demand, limited resources, and global interdependence are reshaping the way supply chains work. The question is no longer whether things will change — but how prepared we are to respond.
This Summer School focuses on the tools that help future logistics professionals move from guessing to testing, from reacting to anticipating, and from assumptions to data-driven decisions.
THE CORE IDEA
Build. Simulate. Analyse. Decide.
Build models
Transform complex logistics systems into models that help explain how supply chains behave.
Simulate scenarios
Test disruptions, delays, demand changes, and different decision paths before they become real-world problems.
Analyse data
Compare outcomes, identify patterns, and understand what the numbers reveal about system performance.
Make real decisions
Use simulation results and digital twins to support smarter, faster, and more resilient supply chain decisions.
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT?
Not just lectures. A real international learning experience.
International teamsWork with students from different countries, backgrounds, and study programmes.
Hands-on challengesApply simulation and modelling approaches to practical logistics problems.
Future-focused skillsExplore digital twins, data, scenario testing, and decision support.
Slovenian experienceDiscover Celje, connect with peers, and experience Slovenia beyond the classroom.
WHO IS IT FOR?
For students who want to understand what happens before the decision.
This programme is designed for students interested in logistics, supply chains, digital transformation, simulation, data analysis, decision-making, sustainability, and the future of complex systems.
You do not need to have all the answers before joining. You need curiosity, willingness to collaborate, and the motivation to explore how technology can support better decisions.
YOU WILL LEAVE WITH
More than knowledge. A new way of thinking.
Simulation mindset
Learn how to test decisions before implementing them.
Digital twin awareness
Understand how virtual representations can support real-world logistics decisions.
Data confidence
Become more confident in interpreting results and comparing alternatives.
International connections
Meet peers from across Europe and build your professional network.
READY TO SIMULATE THE FUTURE?
Applications are open until 1 June 2026.
Join the 13th International Logistics Summer School and explore how digital twins, simulation, and data can turn uncertainty into better decisions.
Before you decide, simulate.
