International Business

Analyse, implement and optimise: a track designed to help you master the challenges of international development and sustainable supply chains.

Focus on the Master in Management (Programme Grande École)

Accessible after a Bachelor’s degree (3-year undergraduate degree), the Master in Management is a two-year programme structured in two stages: Master 1 and Master 2.

It is designed for students who wish to build strong foundations in management while progressively developing a distinctive professional profile through an advanced specialisation.

Two-Year Excellence Pathway

Master 1: Choosing Your Professional Track
Students select a “professional track” from 8 areas of expertise, allowing them to progressively refine their career goals. This pathway is complemented by a common core curriculum including foreign languages, digital skills, project management, artificial intelligence, humanities and corporate social responsibility.

Master 2: Advanced Specialisation and Professionalisation
In the final year, students deepen their chosen track through advanced specialisation and prepare their Master’s thesis using both quantitative and qualitative research methods. This stage focuses on developing strategic and high-level professional skills.
