Master of Production management, logistics, purchasing

The purpose of the "Production management, Logistics, Purchasing" Master's degree is to train managers in the field of purchasing, mainly international, supply chain management, supplier relationship management, and quality management.

The Master thus aims to train executives capable of leading the development of international trade in goods and services within a globalized economy. The training prepares, in particular, students for now highly internationalized professions of the Purchasing & Supply-Chain function and ultimately, to take on managerial responsibilities within these professions.

The training program combines substantial conceptual and academic contributions in management with a substantial professionalization through a practical work-study assignment. This training, offered by way of an apprenticeship, is intended for students wishing to exercise high-level responsibilities in large private and public organizations concerned with developing internationally by taking advantage of the globalization of markets' opportunities.

The training is open to students with initial management training (License or M1 in management or equivalent diploma) and students with backgrounds in other disciplinary fields (scientific, technological, legal, social, linguistic). It wishes to focus on the purchasing and supply chain professions. For this training with a strong international dimension, an adequate level of English is required and an ability to follow courses in foreign languages. For the "International Purchase" course, fluency in a second modern language (German or Spanish) is also required.

The training is offered on a work-study basis and requires the signing of an apprenticeship or professionalization contract for a mission in the Purchasing and Logistics functions for 12 months (if access to master 2) or 24 months ( if access to master 1).

The University of Evry provides training in most disciplines (excluding health) from Bachelor to Doctorate. It is also developing vocational courses in close connection with the socio-economic world, which quickly raises it to the first rank of French universities in terms of the number of apprentice students in higher education.

From its start, it sets this double requirement. The first is international in scope: supporting our laboratories to be at the highest world level in their specialties while training generations of future researchers through research. The second translates into action our social responsibility: participate in young people's emancipation through higher qualification training and make them citizens and graduates, ready to integrate into society and the professional world, following republican principles.

The University of Evry is fully integrated into the University of Paris-Saclay as an associate member university. This university also associates the UVSQ (University of Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines), 4 grandes écoles, the Institute of High Scientific Studies, and 6 National Research Organizations. In the southwestern Ile-de-France region, its purpose is to build a world-class intensive research university (15% of research in France) and strengthen access to higher education for as many people as possible. The vast majority of our Master's degrees and all of our doctorate are now degrees stamped "Université Paris-Saclay."
