Student testimonials
"Facing today’s increasing global competition and the finance crisis, supply chain management is becoming more and more critical to international companies like Siemens. In Siemens, Supply Chain Management Initiatives will generate substantial additional value and accelerate the establishment of a world-class SCOM function within the sectors and the company.

Presently, I am contributing what I learned to the company and growing with Siemens."
