J’ai choisi d’intégrer le Master GPLA car selon moi le domaine de la supply chain, et notamment de la logistique, est le tenant et l’aboutissant de la quasi intégralité des réalisations de l’Homme. Les atouts de cette formation ? Ce sont les intervenants enseignants-chercheurs et professionnels !
J'ai choisi ce master parce que c'était la suite logique de mes études après un DUT transport et une licence professionnelle logistique globale. C'était ce master qui correspondait à mes attentes et comme j'avais déjà réalisé 2 années en alternance, il était nécessaire pour moi de continuer en alternance.
J'ai trouvé ce secteur là très intéressant et attractif, alors quand j'ai dû choisir mon master après ma licence d'économie gestion de la FEG AMU, le choix par excellence pour poursuivre ma carrière dans le milieu de la logistique, fut le master GPLA.
Le choix du master GPLA MALO s'est fait après une formation de commerce international et une expérience positive dans ce domaine en entreprise.
Les points positifs de cette formation : elle reste très générale dans la logistique et il y a un très grand nombre d'intervenants qui viennent de secteurs différents qui permettent d'avoir une vue d'ensemble de la logistique.
Les atouts du Master : l'enseignement en mode projet, qui nous prépare à la vie professionnelle et la possibilité de faire une année d'alternance, qui était pour moi la meilleure solution vers l'excellence opérationnelle et universitaire.
