The course aims to introduce students to sustainable supply chain practices, with a particular focus on warehousing and distribution. Learning will revolve around a case study based on Ultima Mobility, a French company that designs and manufactures electric bicycles and cargo bikes made in France.

Throughout the programme, students will collaborate in multicultural and multi-university teams to analyse the case study, allowing them to strengthen both their technical knowledge and their intercultural communication and teamwork skills.

As this is a Blended Intensive Programme, participants will take part in several online sessions before the intensive week in Lyon. These virtual meetings will introduce the course content, facilitate group work, and prepare students for the collaborative activities that will take place during the face-to-face week.

In addition to the academic programme, participants will also enjoy cultural activities, offering them the opportunity to discover the city of Lyon and experience French culture while building connections with fellow students from across Europe
