Master program director
As Director of the Master in International Project Management at the University of Strasbourg since 2011, I oversee the program’s academic and professional strategy, ensure its pedagogical excellence, and develop a structured network of corporate partners and alumni to enhance graduate employability.
Academic leadership and excellence
In this role, I ensure program excellence through three key areas: selective candidate admission, methodological advising of master’s dissertations, and continuous improvement of teaching practices.
To maintain cohort consistency and high academic standards, I participate in the full selection process for each intake, contributing to the review of approximately 600 applications and about 80 candidate interviews annually.
I advise and assess around 20 project management dissertations each year, providing comprehensive supervision—from topic selection to final defense—with personalized methodological guidance and regular internship follow-up.
I also lead strategic planning by designing educational frameworks and four-year plans that align course content and skill development with evolving professional needs.
Industry engagement and employability
To strengthen student employability, I have developed a professional ecosystem around the program anchored in three pillars: long-term corporate partnerships, industry practitioners in teaching roles, and an active alumni network.
I have initiated and maintained lasting partnerships with major companies in France and across Europe, securing steady internship pipelines and preferential graduate recruitment.
As academic lead for teaching staff relations, I recruit and integrate practitioners from international firms into the teaching team, consistently blending academic excellence with operational effectiveness across the curriculum.
I have played a key role in shaping the program’s alumni network—now nearly 400 strong, spread across diverse roles worldwide—actively engaging this community to share targeted opportunities and organize professional events that sustain cohort connections.
