Careers 5
In the words of our Alumni Eric Aicardi Italy Since I finished my Bachelor degree in economics and management I wanted to continue my studies in the field of supply chain and purchasing management, and I truly believe that the choice of the MSCPM is the wisest I could have made. Not only the master has given me valuable insights on the subjects of supply chain and purchasing management but it has also contributed to my personal growth as a future professional and as a person. The multicultural environment, the right mix between theoretical and practical teaching, and the chance to live in both France and Italy, are only some of the reasons why I will never regret my choice. Stefano Spinozzi Italy This master provides a complete and deeply overview of the best practices, advanced expertise and last trends of supply chain & purchasing with case studies, open discussions during the courses and group assignments, aimed to enhance your cohesion and collaboration with classmates from all over the world. It has also contributed to the evolution of my professional career through a highly effective career service: many companies were invited to the school for recruiting. One of these firms, Whirlpool Europe, visited MIP at the end of the semester, offering me an interview and afterwards a job as Strategic Sourcing Analyst for the EMEA region. I m very satisfied for having chosen MSCPM and for the achievements accomplished thanks to Audencia and MIP. Ambroise Philip France In the words of our Alumni The MSCPM program is really winning because it combines best the managerial and technical approaches, giving to the students both analytical and managerial skills which are both crucial in the field of supply chain and purchasing management. Industry insights were also very well provided by the sectoral approaches course. Moreover, the great variety of professional and life experiences between professors, students and practitioners was definitely a great value added. Finally, it was also the opportunity for me to discover Milan, which is a very dynamic and inspiring city to live in. I m currently working for a multinational FMCG company (Reckitt Benckiser) as Demand Planner, where I m applying on a daily basis the frameworks I ve learned during the program; and I m sure this will help me to further my career. 6
