Theory meets practice – students at FANUC Europe

Students of the Master in Logistics & Supply Chain Management Class visited FANUC Europe in Luxembourg

Echternach, Luxembourg – On Friday, September 22nd, Andrea Scammacca, Head of European Supply Chain and his team at FANUC Europe have opened their doors to the University of Luxembourg.

The visit had been arranged in regards to the new Masters programme in Logistics and Supply Chain Management, which was launched earlier this year in April. Together with his team, Andrea Scammacca gave the students a tour covering the European Headquarters in Echternach and the new and innovative Customisation and Distribution center in Contern in order for them to peek behind the curtains of FANUC and of applied supply chain theories. While exploring the highlights of FANUC Europe from a supply chain perspective, Andrea Scammacca in particular introduced the essential aspects of the product planning method as well as the order promise process.

The Luxembourg Centre of Logistics and Supply Chain Management offers a one-year programme, which has attracted young talents from across the globe to enrol in these international studies. The students hold a broad range of educational backgrounds from fields such as International Business and Economics, Urban Affairs, Technology and even Engineering.
The programme has been brought to life in cooperation with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Center for Transportation and Logistics. It intends to enhance student’s analytical and leadership skills in regards to supply chain management with a special focus on the Luxembourgish logistics, banking and finance sector.

With Luxembourg being a major European and international financial centre, it provides a unique platform of employment opportunities for graduates. For students of this Masters programme, the newly opened Product and Customisation Center in Contern may also be of interest one day.

“Smart students of today are potential leaders of tomorrow and FANUC Europe sees large potential in them to one day join the FANUC team,” states Andrea Scammacca.
