Main themes
Diagnostic represents the first phase of the immersion project that will take place between September and December of M2 (Q3)
This phase can be considered an introductory one, while students will get acquainted with main theories in digital, his/her organization and environment.
To support this acclimation, seminars will take place regularly on pre-defined themes, in agreement with the members of the chair (IPM-Digital Marketing).
Every subject will consider theoretical aspects and professional practices, as a theoretical lecture is supported by guest speakers (mostly managers. Students will then consider those subject in the light of their own organization.
Regular exchanges in the frame of this seminar should help students to step back and think holistically, especially through the discussion with professors and professionals.
This approach should lead to a diagnostic of the organization and eventually identify a research question to address in a master thesis. This seminar indeed also proposes an academic support in the process of the master thesis as well as the internship.

Content
The diagnosis is the first phase of the immersion project will take place from September to December (Q3).
During this phase, the student will need to gain an understanding of the key theories, the organization and its environment.
Regular seminars are organized on themes defined each year by the chair (PARTENAMUT IPM-Digital Marketing). For each theme, academic theories are studied and put into perspective with professional practices. The student then carries out an analysis work specific to his or her immersion framework. Regular seminars allow for exchanges aimed at developing students' ability to take a step back and put into perspective through dialogue with professors and professionals.
Through this work, the student should arrive at a diagnosis concerning the organization's digital strategy and identify a memory problem leading to recommendations for the organization.

Note: In all work for this course (individual or group), sources of information must be systematically cited, in compliance with bibliographic referencing standards. If the student has used a generative AI, he/she is required to systematically indicate which parts of the work have been processed using this tool, adding a footnote specifying whether the AI was used and for what purpose (information retrieval, text writing and/or text correction). Students remain fully responsible for the content of their work, regardless of the sources used. Thus, by submitting a piece of work for assessment, the student affirms: (i) that it faithfully reflects the phenomenon studied, and for this he/she must have verified the facts; (ii) that he/she has complied with all the specific requirements of the work entrusted to him/her, in particular the requirements for transparency and documentation of the scientific approach used. If any of these statements is not true, whether intentionally or through negligence, the student is in default of his/her ethical commitment to the knowledge produced in the course of his/her work, and possibly to other aspects of academic integrity, which constitutes academic misconduct and will be considered as such.
