Why did you choose the MCA Master's Course at the University of Münster?
I was looking for a Master's course that focussed on international standards for transnational trade. I came across the MCA in Germany when searching on the Internet. I decided to study in Münster because the course has been offered since 2005. Thereby, I am able to profit from the experience that the organisers have obtained in the last ten years.

How does the MCA benefit you?
The professors and students ensure that I am continually improving and developing. Owing to the fact that the other students are customs practitioners, I learn a lot from them. The fact that the course is held in English is a further advantage for me.

How will you use the MCA qualification?
By the time I graduate, I hope to have a comprehensive picture of European trade and customs law. In addition, I hope to use my knowledge to help improve the Asian customs community.

Delphine Neveux, Regional Senior Manager Global Trade Compliance

Why did you choose the MCA Master's Course at the University of Münster?
The MCA is the only study in my field of expertise recognized by the World Customs Organisation. Follow this education preliminary aimed at capacity building of senior customs officials will be a catalyst for my company’s standing and reputation with government agencies worldwide. This WCO’s recognition was an important credential factor for me to choose the course offered by the University of Münster.

How does the course benefit you?

The MCA enhances my trade & customs compliance knowledge. It provides me with the legal framework and the latest regulatory developments to support my company’s global trade strategy. Networking with other industry-peers is very helpful to reflect on the various business solutions available to the similar challenges we face. We are stronger together! 

What subjects on the MCA course do you find particularly interesting?
I am particularly interested in Global Customs Compliance and Export Controls.

Gerald van den Eijnden, Manager Global Logistics Systems & Trade Compliance

Why did you choose the MCA Master's Course at the University of Münster?
My field is actually logistics and the supply chain, but for two years I have been increasingly working in trade compliance. I have a lot of practical experience in trade compliance but lack the theoretical basis. This is what I hope to obtain in the MCA program. I became aware of the MCA course through the recommendation of others. It also has the advantage of being an English-language program at a German University. 

How will studying MCA benefit you?
All participants at the MCA are practitioners. Therefore, networking with other students has proved particularly beneficial. The MCA course also keeps you up to date concerning important changes that will take place in the next two, three or five years. 

What subjects on the MCA course do you find particularly interesting?
The most important subject for me is security - the AEO in particular. Also current Free trade agreements and future developments in this area have my interest. The course provides me with cutting-edge knowledge that I can use to prepare future strategies for our company.
