It has become a ritual appreciated by all: on the occasion of the "inter-promo" day, the students who finish the Master's degree in Circular Economy "pass the torch" to the newcomers.
On the program: a morning of defending the professional thesis projects of the "alumni" and an afternoon of exchanges and networking, a sort of sponsorship!
All the studies of the class of 2021-2022 are conducted within large groups such as GRDF, Groupe Avril, Decathlon, Maison du Monde or smaller structures such as Envie35, Chereau, Groupe Briand, Praxiam and many others.
It is an opportunity to get acquainted, discover or re-discover various subjects concerning multiple fields of activity:
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR):
- The mobilization of employees for a CSR approach in companies: issues, obstacles and key success factors for a public service company

TOP start for the new class of 2022-2023 Specialized Masters in Circular Economy
The new class is now ready to begin the "Specialized Master" adventure at UniLaSalle Rennes. In pursuit of their studies, reorientation (purchasing department, IT project management in bancassurance, commercial functions) or professional consolidation (marketing product manager, eco-design, safety, environment and risk prevention), the students follow the training in initial or alternating courses through an internship or a professionalization contract.
Lucie Domingo, Eco-design Associate Professor and head of the training, will conclude this day:
It is always a special moment to see one class pass the relay to the next. Bonds are forged, projects are set up, a real effervescence that sets the tone for the year: sharing, high standards and rigor but also good humor!
