Business and Management School
Five-year Master programme

IESEG is a Business and Management School that accepts undergraduates on a competitive entrance basis. We prepare them to management careers in the course of a five-year programme. The time spent here enables a coherent teaching structure that follows the international 3+2 standards.

The first part of the programme is a three-year undergraduate course, common to all students, which trains students in the main areas of management. This gives them:

 

    Fundamental management tools
    An understanding of the academic disciplines involved: law, accountancy, quantitative analysis, organisational performance, information management
    A knowledge of the main roles of management
   

The capacity to develop a strategic vision in business

 

The second part of the programme is a two-year Master's course. Students specialise in an area of their choice: marketing, finance, human resources, operations, information systems, auditing and monitoring, or general administration.

Home and exchange students all receive the best teaching from a body of more than one hundred university teachers and business professionals. Much of the teaching is team-based, working on developing the students’ capacity to take-on responsibilities. State-of-the-art facilities are accessible twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week: study rooms, computer rooms, a documentation centre, language laboratories…

The Economics, Law and Management Library contains more than 35,000 books, 1000 periodicals, and hundreds of CD-ROMs.

Our intimate relationship with the Lille Catholic University (6 faculties, 25 schools, 40 research teams and 16,800 students) means that students may also take advantage of the university’s unlimited resources: a central library (500,000 books and 4,500 reviews), the university subsidised restaurant, accommodation, academic collaboration, etc.
