Large enterprises, partners of Mains, Master in Management and Engineering Services, held at Scuola Sant’Anna in Pisa, including Centro Ricerche Fiat, Coop Italia, Ericsson, IBM and Enel, are having 90 percent of newly-graduated get a job, a very positive result. In fact, IBM is partner of Mains since the start, and according to Carla Milani, University Relations Manager of IBM Italia, the idea of launching this project was the need of finding specialized personnel in services consultancy and management, today realizing more sales than products. The best students are being selected all over Italy, not only focused on engineering and economics. (translated from Italian)

Note: MAINS was one of the earliest adopters of the (SSME)  Service Science multi-disciplinary  curriculum.
