Programme

The Master Grande Ecole course

3 semesters for the Bachelor's level

During this first year, the student will acquire the necessary tools and knowledge for entry to the world of business. Each student must obtain the European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) – the international standard for validating the skills of all computer users – and attain competence in at least 2 foreign languages, of which one must be English. The other foreign language can be Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese, Japanese or Arabic.

After two semesters of academic work, the student undertakes a compulsory Six-month work placement. This allows him/her to put into practice the theoretical knowledge he/she has acquired, and to take on tasks of significant responsibility. Part of this work placement can be carried out within the student's association. Educational follow-up is then provided.

Semester 1 and semester 2 : courses on the fundamentals of management

Semester 3, a first professional experience
An internship of at least six months duration has to be carried out in the period June to December.
It is possible to carry out part of this internship in the student’s school association (4 months maximum). A supervisory system is then set up and the progress of these students is evaluated and graded.
7000 offers of internships and jobs are accessible on the school’s Intranet.
