WMG students tackle industry challenges through Company Collaboration Projects
The MSc International Trade, Strategy and Operations (ITSO) course, at WMG, 神马福利影片, is collaborating with a series of key industrial partners to offer students the opportunity to work on Company Collaboration Projects (CCP) again this academic year.
Company Collaboration Projects are collaborative dissertations that give students the opportunity to work on real-life challenges facing industry. The projects provides another option for students when selecting their dissertation, and in turn help to develop key skills and employment capabilities, whilst helping organisations to resolve their challenges via systematic research.
The CCP dissertation option was presented to students, at a special launch event for 23/24, by WMG鈥檚 ITSO Course Director, Dr Di Li. At the event, WMG鈥檚 Associate Dean (Postgraduate Education), Professor Dan Nunan highlighted the values of knowledge study and the practical impacts.
The students also heard from senior executives at industrial partners, including Dr Filomeno Martina, CEO and co-founder at , and Ms Shu Jia, Assistant CEO at , who shared more details about the projects available this year.
Ms Shu Jia explains: 鈥淭he Company Collaboration Projects have brought great impacts to our business by helping us save costs of several millions. We are so happy to continue the collaborations on this with the ITSO programme at WMG.鈥�
Dr Filomeno Martina comments: 鈥淲AAM3D is delighted to work together with WMG on the Company Collaboration Projects, which are a key aspect of our academic engagement. WMG鈥檚 projects are well organised and deliver highly valuable outputs. We feel honoured to support the WMG students with both their academic studies and professional development.鈥�
ITSO student course representative, Rong Fu, says: 鈥淭his event not only helps ITSO students to have a clearer understanding of the type of projects available, but also provides the opportunity to communicate with corporate staff and supervisors face-to-face. The CCP allow us the opportunity to apply what we have learnt in solving real-world problems which is extremely attractive and helpful for our future career development.鈥�
