The GPDC (Digital Campus Major Projects — Grands Projets Digital Campus) call on companies every year that face challenges in digitalising their business or lack digital visibility.
And as every year, all students from the Aix-en-Provence campus take part.
At the start of the year, all Digital Campus students in Aix — from Bachelor 1st year through to the final year of the Master's — take part in the Major Projects.
First, students attend a presentation from each company seeking fresh digital ideas for their organisation.
Following the presentations, students are divided into 6 groups and can choose the company and its challenge they wish to work on for the next six months.
This year, four companies will be working alongside our students:
- Think Positif (training organisation)
- Hysope (luxury cosmetics)
- Deki (low-carbon urban logistics)
- Alcante (fragrance products).
The Digital Campus Major Projects give our students the opportunity to merge their knowledge.
Indeed, all programmes from Bachelor 1st year through to the final year of the Master's are mixed together, giving our students the chance to share their skills and learn from one another within their working group over these six months.
In March, students will need to present their complete projects to the teaching teams. These teams will carry out an initial assessment of the dossiers before passing them on to the relevant companies.
Students will then have the opportunity to give a full oral presentation of their recommendations in response to the challenges raised by the companies — a chance to demonstrate their professionalism, skills, and expertise in the digital sector.
So, see you in March for the project presentations and handovers.
