Message from Alumni
As an IT procurement manager, this programme has been instrumental in advancing my career.
Firstly, it equipped me with professional skills and a broad strategic perspective, enabling me to navigate the rapid transformation of the industry and address the need for efficient yet flexible solutions in the face of unforeseen challenges.
Secondly, the management and leadership skills I gained—particularly in risk management and supplier relationship management—have prepared me for higher-level roles within my career trajectory.
Thirdly, the programme provided valuable insights into making informed decisions based on historical data and forecasting, which has been particularly impactful in the area of cost optimisation.
Additionally, the lessons learned from both lecturers and peers have been invaluable. Despite coming from diverse industries and roles within the global supply chain, the exchange of perspectives and experiences bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application.
In conclusion, this programme has equipped me with both anticipated and unexpected skills and knowledge, enhancing my value as a vital asset to the company.

After five years working in Huawei, I decided to go back to school and major in global supply chain management.
This programme helps students no matter what industry they are from because every company has to think about how to increase efficiency and reduce their total costs. This programme teaches how to do this, and it demonstrates the full lifecycle of a product, from raw materials to final goods.
I took a job in DJI after graduation, and the knowledge and skills that I learned at PolyU help me in my daily work.
If you feel tired and confused after several years of working, don't hesitate to come back to school to learn. No matter how old you are and what experience you have, please do not stop learning. I will always remember my time at PolyU.
