Master in Management - Grande Ecole

The Grande École curriculum is divided into a generalist phase and a specialization phase. The first phase concentrates on business fundamentals, while the second one focuses on acquiring an expertise (chosen according to the professional goals of the student). The unique structure of the curriculum enables students to acquire both an excellent grounding in general management and expertise in a specific field. We firmly believe this combination is the key success factor in training future leaders and making a lasting impact on the careers of our students. The second year of the Master’s program Cycle is composed of a specialized and professional curriculum, and the composition of a research paper.

12 December 2016

The HEC Foundation Award Ceremony took place on December 9, 2016.
The award winners and nominees were congratulated for academic rigor of their analyses and for the pertinence of their work for the business world.

Congratulations to them all and more specifically to the following SnO members:

Anne Jacqueminet (HEC PhD 2015), Assistant Professor at Bocconi University, who was awarded the 2016 HEC Foundation Doctoral Thesis Prize.

More on this news on HEC PhD program webpage.

HEC Paris Professor Florian Hoos, Academic Director and Lise Penillard (H.09), Executive Director of the MSc in Sustainability and Social Innovation who were awarded the "Bruno Roux de Bezieux Prize for the best educational initiative" for the success of their FACT Impact Planet program.

Fact Impact Planet is an experience-based, service learning program based on what its directors call an ecosystem pedagogy approach.

During a four months course at HEC Paris (February-May), mixed L3 and M1 student teams interact and define a mission together with entrepreneurs from developing and emerging countries, before they apply their acquired knowledge during a six weeks field mission at the entrepreneurs’ location (June-July). The program benefits from a partnership with the NGO Im’Prove, financial support from the Sisley-d’Ornano Foundation (“bourses d’excellence Laetitia d’Ornano”), and a network of international partners.
The program’s main objectives are to educate students in terms of responsible business development, expose them to a potential professional career path as social entrepreneur or intrapreneur, and to offer them possibilities for personal and leadership skill development. So far, 189 students performed 57 field-missions in 15 countries.
