Kick-off Full-Time Aerospace MBA FT18 – Toulouse – Sept. 28, 2016

 

On Wednesday 28th of September, TBS welcomed the Delegates of the Aerospace MBA program FT18 at 9.30 am, in Bosco Building, Toulouse (France). After Mr. François Bonvalet’s opening address, the Aerospace MBA team officially greeted the Delegates. Faculty members introduced themselves (Dr. Greg Voss, Dr. Cordula Barzantny, Dr. Sophie d’Armagnac, Dr. Miguel Urdanoz, Chris Creed, Sarah Kartalia…) and attended the presentation. Anne Pérignon, Marie Baudoin, Tricia Boby and Dr. Christophe Bénaroya (“the Aerospace MBA team”) then provide information about the program, the schedule, the new content and activities. The International Students Office completes the TBS presentation explaining the support this Department can provide to the Delegates not only as “students” of TBS but as well in their daily life.

At 11.00 am a photographer took official pictures of the Delegates. The cohort receives dozen of books. Fully equipped for the coming months! This actually will be the last cohort to benefit from this (heavy) set of books! In order to ease the process and make it possible to get prepares before the first lectures, a list of compulsory books will be provided beforehand to the future cohort.

At 11.45, Nicolas Osorio, President of the Aerospace MBA Alumni Association presents his team (Jean-Michel Barthez, Chao Wu, Muthukumaran Thangaraju) and the diverse activities and services provided by the Association.

Then it’s lunch time! A great opportunity to meet up with the current Part-Time cohort (PT11) and the soon-to-be-graduates Aerospace MBA Delegates from both Part-Time (PT10) and Full-Time (FT17) programs.

In the afternoon, after diverse administrative tasks and the visit of TBS facilities, the library services are presented by the head of TBS library, Ms. Florence Levy.

At 5.30 pm, the cohort is warmly invited to join the 17th Graduation Ceremony of the Aerospace MBA in presence of Mr. Patrick de Castelbajac, CEO of ATR, Mr. Alain di Crescenzo, President of the Toulouse Chamber of Commerce & Industry, Mr. François Bonvalet, Dean of TBS and Dr. Christophe Bénaroya, Director of the Aerospace MBA.
