Why did you agree to head up the Paris campus?

I am very attached to our institution: since 2011, I have held several positions here, always with the desire to contribute to its development and influence. I had never considered taking on the management of a campus, but when the opportunity arose, I thought it was another way to serve the institution. I enjoy challenges and missions that require a strong commitment. 

What direction would you like to take the campus in? 

I have been exploring the campus for the past few days with the kind assistance of Smaïne Kouidri, and I can see that the main missions of a higher education institution, namely initial and continuing education, research through its laboratories, and promotion through AMVALOR, are perfectly fulfilled within our campus.
I want to continue the momentum created by Smaïne regarding the site's dynamics in terms of staff and buildings.
I have also set myself the goal of promoting the campus by revitalizing student life on the one hand and transforming the campus to make it more open to the outside world, particularly through links with the green industry.
Our school, which has significant assets, must become a totem of the green industry in the Paris region, i.e., a multi-user (researchers, technicians, high school and middle school students, industrialists, startups, etc.) and multi-activity (research, training, R&D, discovery activities, transfer, innovation, etc.) in which the green industry is the main focus.
Finally, we must collectively support the development ofEvolutive Learning Factory successful integration into the laboratories and with appropriate teaching methods. This project, which I wish to promote, can only be built and realized with the involvement and support of everyone. The working method that suits me and that I have implemented in my previous positions is based on benevolent management. It is therefore around the values of sharing, listening, support, hard work, rigor, and high standards that I wish to build, with you, the campus of tomorrow.

What is your background?

After ten years of professional experience in the automotive industry, during which I had the opportunity to develop and manage a design office, I decided to pursue a PhD at École Centrale de Nantes. I then joined the École Polytechnique de Montréal (Canada) for four years as a professor.
In 2011, I joined the Arts et Métiers campus Arts et Métiers as a teacher-researcher. Together with Simon Richir, I developed a one-year expertise program that I opened up to professional training contracts, a first at Arts et Métiers.
In 2014, I joined the Metz campus, where I quickly took on responsibility for corporate relations before becoming deputy director of the campus in charge of corporate relations.
In 2018, I joined the school's senior management team as director of corporate relations to develop school/industry relations.
In five years with the Corporate Relations network, we have professionalized corporate relations within the school and enhanced our image and actions, for example by signing more than fifty sponsorship agreements with more than thirty companies.
