This MSc not only combines technical and functional, but also theoretical and applied knowledge. The regular, theoretical courses are, for example: Digital Business Solutions, Audit & Risk Management, Project Management 1. The technical, applied courses are, for example: Project Management 2, and the five weeks of training in SAP Labs. The three certifications: PMI, CAPM or PMP; SAP E2E100 and SAP E2E200 give real added value on a CV. We had lots of classes and contact with industry experts who gave lectures: Ernst & Young for the Consulting / Audit courses; SAP, IBM, HP, INRIA for the IT courses. The lectures are interactive and customised to students' needs. This is possible because class sizes are small, giving each student more time to interact with the industry experts, and to get more individual feedback. The teaching really took advantage of these small groups; it's been a great benefit for us. I've got a six-month internship at SAP. The agreements between SAP and SKEMA have a lot to do with this, the five weeks of SAP training at SAP Labs also. I think it would have been impossible for me to get an internship at SAP without having done this MSc. I think there are also some opportunities for students of this MSc to work for a consulting company. I have great memories of the five weeks intensive training at SAP, the Project Management 2 course (work on a real project), conferences given by professionals (such as the one with INRIA and IBM-SNCF)
