Our faculty is made of lecturers, researchers, professionals, consultants, coaches and managers. This diversity helps our students to have a concrete understanding of professional environments.

Our research activity centers on learning organizations and uses the innovative platform INEXO – a replica of a factory on our campus – to teach lean management.
