MSc 1 Management

Visuel MSc 1

Building a basic foundation in the field of management

During their MSc 1 year, students will reinforce or acquire basic knowledge of management and build a tailor-made program according to the specialization they plan to pursue in MSc 2. They have access to specific support and tutoring resources to help them build their profile.

They also benefit from a distance learning platform where more than 300 modules in French and English are available.

Professionalization

Students are given the opportunity to work in a professional situation through long-term internships and work-study contracts. These are facilitated by company events organized by the school (apprenticeship meetings, internship/employment forum, career days).

Going international

Finally, the wide network of partners of the IAE offers a wide range of destinations to study in a university abroad and to internationalize its profile. The profile of students in this program is varied: graduates in the field of management and economics with a background in management alongside scientists but also lawyers or students from language or literature.

Specializing

At the end of the MSc1, students integrate one of the 9 MSc2 specialties offered by the IAE. The choice of specialization is made at the time of application and ensures that the admitted student has a place in the MSc2 of his choice. Each student is then accompanied during his MSc1 to confirm this choice or make it evolve.
