« To me this programme should have been called "MBA in Business Security Management". As a person not really in the IT field itself, but rather working at a high technology industry in a management position, this MBA gave me strong tools, methodologies and some systemic ways of thinking about the issues and solutions that are today a "must to know" for all companies trying to survive. In understanding that today's market gives us many challenges and constraints (business, finance, legal, competition and market) and there is a genuine need for contingency plans for everything, the only way to survive is to be agile in governance and secure your business with tactics and strategies that have to be subjected to continuous change management.
This is what I've learned in this MBA and what has helped me a lot to further my progress – in particular, developing a Master thesis entitled "[BI/CI] Building a Business and Competitive Intelligence framework." »

« If, in just a few words, I summarize what this Master has given me, it is not information systems security that I would cite. It is for me, first and foremost, a new discovery of business - its governance and the risks which can directly affect its capacity to achieve its objectives and can compromise the creation of value. Strategy and the alignment of information systems, tools and methods are at the heart of this very complete programme. »
