MIT to develop logistics program in Zaragoza, Spain
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Center for Transportation and Logistics has signed a multiyear agreement with the government of Aragon, one of 17 autonomous regions into which Spain is divided, to assist in creating an international program for education and research in logistics.
The government will build the new center in Zaragoza, the capital of Aragon, with MIT and PLA-ZA, a local logistics development, acting as partners in the project.
Plataforma Logistica de Zaragoza, or PLA-ZA, has developed and operated a logistics park southwest of Zaragoza near the city’s international airport.
