Prof. dr. Frank Rozemeijer
Prof. Dr. Frank Rozemeijer, NEVI Professor of Purchasing and Supply Chain Management at Maastricht University is responsible for the curriculum of the programme. He has held this position since 2013 and was responsible for shaping the international character of PLP. For instance, he has ensured that the English-language programme is aligned with the MaastrichtMBA curriculum of UMIO to guarantee the desired level of quality of the programme.
Alongside his research and teaching activities in Maastricht, Frank acts as a consultant for international companies. This places him in an excellent position to paint an integrated picture of the different disciplines within the PLP curriculum and translate that into required competences for procurement leaders in an international context.
Enlightening study trip to Stockholm
One particularly interesting element of the PLP is the three-day study trip to Stockholm, Sweden.
