Case Study: The Aerotropolis

This case study introduces students to a new infrastructure called the aerotropolis, and the impact it will have on logistics and supply chains. The aerotroplis is an airport-centric commercial trend which transforms "city airports" into "airport cities." Students will read background information on the developing concept of the aerotropolis and examine a sample schematic for such an airport. Students will then answer several discussion questions. 

This case study complements Tacoma Community College's Logistics curriculum. Selected curriculum is available through ATE Central.
