We have two options and four available EMBA intakes to suit your schedule and preferred learning pace. Each intake amounts to approximately 50 days out of the office, and will be completed in 18 months, depending on the specialization you choose.

Flexible Formats

The HEC Paris Executive MBA offers two different study formats and six flexible, part-time intakes to fit your personal and professional lifestyle. Programs are held in four locations: Paris, Jouy-en-Josas (17 kilometers outside of Paris), Doha, Qatar, or Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

International Mobility

International experience is embedded in our Executive MBA program. Students have the opportunity to study across our HEC Paris EMBA campuses in France, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. In addition, our specializations include an international component with institutional partners located across the globe.

Jouy-en-Josas: January or September

The January and September intakes are held at Jouy-en-Josas. Just 10 miles southwest of Paris, the sprawling HEC Paris campus and its verdant confines appeal to participants who wish to devote extended chunks of time to the academic experience. Each of the intakes held here are of modular format, with eight modules (including two specialization modules) for about a week at a time, over 18 months.

Paris: Spring

With premises in the heart of Paris, our Spring intake offers an 18-month program that is held on Fridays and Saturdays twice a month. This intake has flexible starting points from March through May.

GCC: February, April or October

Delivered either in Doha or Riyadh, these intakes attract high potential executives and business professionals, who already hold senior management positions. The 18-month program is organized over weeklong modules. The Emerging Leaders Track (October Intake only in Doha) is designed for high-potential professionals at an earlier stage in their leadership journey and who are looking to accelerate their transition into more strategic roles.
