Two study locations, two renowned universities and countless new experiences – with the Double Degree you can obtain two degrees during your Master's studies: one from the International School of Management and one from our international partner universities.
Karime Celic Gervacio Neri has just finished her studies in Luxury, Fashion & Sales Management at ISM Munich and the INSEEC Business School in Paris. For her, the degree offered the chance to get practical insights into the luxury sector and expand her network. In our interview, she gives insights into her study life and shares her personal highlights.
What was the most memorable practical project you were working on during your time at ISM and INSEEC?
Wow, I couldn't name only one. Many professors gave us the opportunity to have a glimpse into very exclusive events such as the Paris Fashion Week.
The Open Innovation Challenge Week was an exciting project in which we had the opportunity to work with Hermès, the luxury French Maison. Within this week, several groups of students are given the challenge to innovate for the designated company in any way possible; this might be an idea, an item, or any expansion of the company desired. This challenge really is amazing, as we had the chance to work with a partner mentor of the company, who could give us feedback along the process. At the end of the week, we presented our concept in front of a panel of jurors composed of board members of several luxury companies. This project does not only contribute to our creativity but also gives us the chance to expand our network, increasing the opportunities to enter the job we would like in the future.
