Masters of Industry

 

To work for AkzoNobel is to have the courage and curiosity to question. What excites us is asking the unasked. What inspires us is seeing the opportunity others cannot. This has made us world leaders in many global markets.

Program

Every year, we offer a select group of bèta/technical master students the unique opportunity to take a look behind the scenes of our company. We will show you that there is much more to AkzoNobel than you probably first thought! Experience the dynamic and international environment where our people feel at home. Get to know our innovative products, cutting edge technologies, design and maintenance of production sites and commitment to sustainability. The two-day program consists of:

• a series of fascinating lectures
• visits to some of our R&D facilities and production sites
• a captivating business case in which we challenge you to demonstrate your specialist knowledge, business insight, and communication skills.

You will have plenty of opportunity to listen and talk to young graduates who work at our company and have the same study background as you have. Discuss career prospects within AkzoNobel with line managers and HR staff; you will be introduced to them. We are convinced that at the end of two days behind the scenes AkzoNobel does not raise question marks to you anymore.
