"In the past years of career development in supply chain management, I had encountered lots of professional issues. I was eager to find a program that could provide knowledge, practical skills and tools to solve those problems. The GMSCM program is exactly customized for me.

"It was not GMSCM program came to me, but I went for this program. Working in the manufacturing industry with a career planning towards supply chain, this program seemed to be the perfect fit. I would like to tag this program fulfilling and fun.
Fulfillments come as: we are taught WHY 鈥搉ow I know that the new product development process in the company which I took for granted is actually supported by a model called Stage-Gate model; we are taught HOW 鈥� instead of struggling to financially justify a new project or a new product/business launching, now I know there are tools like NPV, contribution margin, and breakeven units that we can employ; we are unveiled to those top-notch companies and to a world BEYOND 鈥� I realized that before questioning the remarks made by the professors, I should have given it a second thought: was it because I was confining myself to the way of working that I was so familiar with? The world is so much bigger and different beyond.
As for the fun part, one could never overvalue it. With our lovely classmates, intriguing professors, and colorful multi-cultural atmosphere, I would like to claim, which is also endorsed by other classmates, that: 鈥淕MSCM has become a new way to spend the weekend. 鈥�

"Working in the FMCG retail field for more than ten years, under the reform of new retail channels I fully experienced the vitality of this fast-growing industry, as well as the fierce competition and challenges brought by market segmentation and technological innovation. From product selection & pricing, channel management and control, system intelligent forecasting and warehousing delivery fulfillment with extremely efficient performance, the output of the full-link solution has become the norm. In the context of reducing costs and increasing efficiency, the endless new models and continuously segmented categories have put forward higher requirements for the intelligentization of the retail supply chain. To upgrade it on a wider scope becomes a possibility to try, and is also an inevitable choice and direction for me.
With thinking about the digital supply chain, expecting a deeper understanding of the upstream and downstream collaboration of the supply chain, and exploring the deeper integration of production, marketing and supply chain resources, I came across the GMSCM project of Zhejiang University which has opened up a treasure of surprises.
GMSCM has brought me a whole new horizon. In the classroom, ideas and ways of thinking are constantly being refreshed or even subverted through collisions and intense discussions with classmates who are experts from different industries. Courses covering business, such as marketing, organizational behavior and finance, help to classify, integrate and refine the experience accumulated from years of practical work, which always has a feeling of being reborn. While the most advantage courses such as supply chain management from 成人VR视频 have opened up a broader world for us in professional in-depth exploration.
Outside of the classroom, not only is there a rich and diversified corporation survey and visits, but also various lectures by famous celebrities and topic sharing of industry leaders, which are absolutely fantastic. This kind of professional course design that takes into account the width and depth, the counterpart input of seamless switching between academic theory and industry practice, perfectly illustrates the spiritual of the supply chain practitioners who are looking up at the starry sky while still standing on solid ground, and it also makes my return to the campus enjoyable and full of cherish!"

鈥淎fter a period of development, both individuals and enterprises encounter the bottleneck of improving ourselves or the life-and death choice. When one day's striving business is over temporarily, whether should we raise our head and ease our confused eyes to see the world around us and think over our work and life?
As for me, one wants to be rooted in the manufacturing industry, the GMSCM program undoubtedly provides a better platform. The courses integrate the strengths of two universities and countries and include the manufacturing and supply chain courses based on the globalization, moreover, they are deeply rooted in local life and give full play to the advantages of emerging markets. The most pleasant thing for me, of course, is to know a group of classmates full of vigor, vitality, passion and we promote each other's work and grow together in class discussion, enterprise visits and life experience here can make my life more meaningful and lead my business to success.鈥�

鈥淥n the GMSCM program I was able to understand several aspects on the manufacturing management that I was not aware before. Being a program between two Universities in very distinct environments the insights from both sides in the class discussions really add to the learning process.
As a supplier development engineer in China, the program helps me a lot with my work and now I am able to launch projects in a much faster and effective way in China. I am able to understand better the suppliers in China due to our discussions in class and apply tools that we learned in their process. The different cultures and industries that the professors and students come from make the classes very interesting and the learning process very enjoyable.鈥�
