In July 2018, the Department of Business Management in the Faculty of Management Sciences pursuant to CUT’s Internationalisation drive welcomed visiting Prof. Christophe Fournier and Ms Marjolain Jourdan from Montpellier University in France for two weeks.

This world-renowned professor in Marketing hosted numerous guest lectures with both students and staff. Since the signing of the memorandum of understanding between CUT and Montpellier University, three staff members from this department had spent not less than 3 months in France on an exchange programme.

A collaboration on postgraduate supervision is one of the solid commitments Prof. Fournier has made with one student’s proposal under consideration at the moment.
