The students of the Executive Master in Global Suply Chain IML Lausanne welcomed the 25 IML students of Paris mid - March 2015, who came for a week to Switzerland to visit some companies such as La Poste, ELSA, Bobst, CICR and Migros Genève.
The study program in Global Supply Chain Management has been designed to provide all participants with the know-how, the competence and confidence necessary for the planning and implementation of logistical and supply chain projects at the strategic as well as the operational levels.
The Executive Master takes places simultaneously in Lausanne at EPFL (mostly in English) and in Paris at the École des Ponts ParisTech/AFT-IFTIM (in French).
The academic program consists of 5 modules with 4 forty-hour courses each, designed to expand the practical and methodological knowledge of the participants.
Each module can be followed independently which allows participants to follow the program over more than one year. The subjects are tackled concretely by case studies presented by business professionals, are developed from a methodological point of view by professors from universities involved in the program and may be common with those presented in France and Canada.
