Certificates
Dear students, Since the successful launch of the certificates in April 2009, there's been lot of talk about these programs. We hope to provide with you all the information you need about the certificates on the specially designed website. A certificate is a set of courses corresponding to approximately 100 contact hours, business projects and other types of field work related to a given sector. Some are offered by leading companies in specific sectors, others are launched by HEC individually. The idea of the certificates stemmed primarily from our ambition to further increase the quality of education offered at HEC. At first, the courses offered were dedicated to a given sector (media, luxury etc.) but only limited coordination took place between the different teachers regarding course content. In addition to the great opportunities for specialization that HEC offers, we believed that there was a need for a complementary (and more transversal) academic approach based on a given sector. We decided to solve these two issues by providing a coherent group of courses. We also wanted to provide the students who enrolled in these courses with some kind of official recognition for their work. As such, we award a "certificate" to all students who successfully complete the requirements of any given certificate. These requirements can vary from one track to another. Who can choose to enrol? These certificates are scheduled from April 26th to June 16th, precisely because we want to offer a complementary academic experience for those students who are approaching graduation.Certificates are therefore primarily dedicated to students in the second year of the Master of Science in Management (Grande Ecole program), or students enrolled in our 1 year (specialized) master programs and MBA students. Five certificates are now available: Digital Innovation for Business, Energy and Finance, Luxury Strategies, Real Estate and Social Business. We hope you will enjoy them! Yours sincerely, Eloïc Peyrache Associate Dean |
