COURSES
The core skills you need in Global Technology Management
Our teaching methods aim to give you the core skills you need to succeed in a complex and competitive business environment. You will learn to deepen your analytical thinking, develop practical skills and design creative strategies for business success.
Our methodology includes:
- Core curriculum
- Blended learning
- Applied learning
- Personal performance coaching
We have a very, very special case this year. Ubisoft is going to present us the new business department. You know that the gaming industry is evolving very fast, and now the biggest game editors are working with the automotive industry, the health industry, the education industry to create more engaging experiences. So this case is about building a vision and a mission for this new business department of Ubisoft.
It's my third time, I think, working with the GETT programme here at EDHEC. And it's actually a very interesting programme with students who are particularly open minded. I was really excited to know more about Ubisoft in this presentation because I really wanted to know how video games could be implemented in other sectors like medical sector or the cultural sector.
It was very interesting to see that Ubisoft is actually partnering with many more entertainment industries like the cultural one or the musical one. In the video games, entry barriers are falling all the time.
Every new console, every new phone is a possibility for new entrants to come and become our competitor. So we actually love the innovation because it's an opportunity to just invent new things all the time. Specifically in this course, we are using some key techniques that are used in marketing today, such as gamification, the use of gaming techniques to create more engagements, but also all those artificial intelligence tools like Midjourney, ChatGPT, but also a lot of others that the students are allowed to use. But even more, we encourage them to use those tools.
If I had just one advice to give you for your career is: make sure that you learn and that you have fun on the job. I promise you it's possible.
And if you don't have fun or if you don't learn, then it's time to change jobs.
Opting for the USA/Asia pathway of the Global Master in Management – GETT means embarking on a journey across three continents at three prestigious institutions with a focus on business management, innovation and entrepreneurship.

What is the GETT programme? | EDHEC Business School
Technology is changing our everyday lives. It's almost changing the way we are as human beings.
Okay, think about the GPS or Google map, it really hurts your capacity to look at yourself without a smartphone in a city. So it's even changing us as human beings.
GETT. Ludovic Cailluet. Programme Director. Professor in Strategy & Business History. EDHEC Business School.
GETT stands for Global Economic Transformation and Technology. Transformation is the important word. It's about change. Understanding change, foreseeing through weak signals what might be the big thing of tomorrow. So that is usually done through a good understanding of technology, and the last term of the GETT acronym.
That's why the last "T" stands for technology.
The GETT programme is designed for pioneers. First because it's a journey. It's a journey that starts on one continent, in France, in Paris. And then carries on, the students will be in Seoul, in Korea, in Asia. And then in the U.S,. at UC Berkeley Haas, in California. And what they get from that first stop, is the good foundations in Management Studies. So they will learn about strategic management, they will learn about finance, they will learn about financial statement analysis. They will learn about marketing. So they need foundations. They will get foundations, but these foundations will be delivered with case studies and actual examples from innovative corporations, technology cases, conferences by practitioners... so on the one side a very strong academic background plus practical insights.
This district, which used to be the financial insurance district, has now moved to be a tech environment with many startups. Within that very building where we are today, which is the school campus in Paris, but also in the very close neighbourhoods. There are some challenges in being a professor or a programme director, and one of the challenges is to convince the student of the usefulness of some of the things we are teaching. And they don't always realise that theory is very practical, I mean there are a lot of things to be taken from theory. They are very attracted to conferences by practitioners, they want these real life examples. They are very important and we provide them with them, but we also have to teach them things that are less immediate. Things that will last. Methodologies, techniques, so very often in my classes I tell the students "I don't really care about the answers, I'm caring about the way you convince me that you are bringing the good solution."
This international experience will change you, it will open your mind, it will push you out of your comfort zone, but moreover it will help you understand the global business transformation.

Experience the Silicon Valley mindset - GETT Programme | EDHEC Business School
[Music]
Berkeley is in the Bay Area and is such an exciting place to be right now, this is where all the companies that you read about or maybe use on a daily basis, are headquartered. And I think if we go back to the core of what makes Silicon Valley so special, it's our relationship with failure.
Whereas in many places in the world, we're thinking about how we can minimise risk? How can we make sure we take the safe path?
In the Silicon Valley Bay Area, not only do we encourage people to take risks, we actually reward them to take risks.
Alek Budak. Director, BHGAP & Social Entrepreneur. Haas School of Business, UC Berkeley
One of the first things that students tell as they arrive at Berkeley for the GETT programme is, this is an amazing place to try something and see what happens. So we love people who maybe come with a background in finance, and they've always thought about "hey maybe I have this startup idea" this is an amazing place to try it, to tap into the resources of UC Berkeley. Tap into the expertise of their faculty and give it a shot. It doesn't work out, that's fine. But what an amazing place to try.
I would describe my teaching style as very collaborative and experiential. The things that I'm teaching aren't things you just learn about in a textbook, when we talk about creativity or courage or humility. One thing I'm very proud about with Berkeley Haas, is that we define ourselves and stand out from other business schools based on our culture. We have four defining leadership principles, and we lead with these and everything that we do. One of these values is beyond yourself. So for the moment students set foot on campus they get a feeling that this business school isn't your traditional business school, it's not just about profit maximisation. One of the values of the school is to humbly serve others, to make a positive impact on others.
For me, the future of business is one that's purpose driven and responsibility-focused. As more and more people of our generation are stepping into the workforce, we're looking for more out of our jobs and out of the society that we're gonna lead, we want to be serving others and making a positive impact and I see more and more leaders here at Berkley Haas and get who want that in their careers. At the same time, we're seeing businesses have more and more of a responsibility to serve everyone in society, not just the key stakeholders. And in Berkeley Haas is at the forefront of creating these leaders, who see business as playing a role in shaping and helping move society forward.
And so from growing up here, in the Silicon Valley Bay Area to my experience working and serving in India, I bring all of that - my passion of creating more social entrepreneurs and more changemakers here at UC Berkeley. We can't know exactly what the future will bring, whether that's blockchain, artificial intelligence or some new technology that hasn't even been invented yet. So our goal isn't just to train students on what's next in the next couple of years, but to train them for their entire career to be the leaders and innovators who question the status quo. Who are ready and able to bring together different disciplines, to think about what that future is, and not just think about it but be people who create the future.
I think one of the biggest challenge for any society or any company, is this protectionism that a lot of country are going for in that path. Nationalism, protecting within one's border. This is kind of discouraging for trade, interflow of ideas. I think that's something to be concerned about.
Business, technology, these are borderless concepts. GETT programme is the antithesis of this close-mindedness. Look, you're bringing a bunch of international students, having them through the training in three different countries. Expose them to different contexts, a different way of doing business. Open their mind, open their horizon, install in them the value and importance of this global trade, of this global concept and global mindfulness. That I think, if nothing else, this will stay with them, the experience and the knowledge they gain. That will allowed them to be adaptive no matter where they go. And that going forward, that will allow you to be a better manager, a better global citizen.
if you look at the global problem, that we currently face as a society... There is no way to get around it, except through technology. Going forward, there's a new technology that will help us address a lot of these issues. Whether we talk about global climate change, hunger or limited resources... without technology we cannot solve these problems.
Every framework that I teach in class, every definition, every concept... Most of the time within three month of walking out of this classroom, you won't remember a thing. So my intention in the classroom is not to teach them memory. I always tell them "it is more important for you to think. If you're able to develop a thinking skill, a strategy to approach problem, those tend to be more long-lasting. That even though you don't remember the framework, that strategy will stay with you." At some level you can look at your students and say "well, somebody place their faith in us. To train them, to work with them." So for me, seeing how well my students develop over the years, is very meaningful. The biggest joy I get is, when they return to see me after a couple years. It seemed that their career has taken off. They're successful and it's rewarding to say that, you know, I have a very small part to play in that. I ask my students to be open-minded, be flexible, don't be trapped in a particular mindset. You're in Korea, this is not your country, but explore. See how the cultural differences can apply to your own work. See what you bring to the table, and what contribution can you make into a foreign society.
Three continents is more than two, which is more than one. But at the end of the day, is a diversity of experience that you have. Every business, especially senior leadership, need to have a diverse global experience. You have that built-in right in this programme.
Today is a day of celebration.
This is the graduation of the two first classes of student of the GETT programme that's a very important day a very important day for the students first a very important day for the director too it's the end of the beginning of the program we graduate the first court ever of what was an emerging program I'm proud regarding them as a person because they have developed we get young adults at the beginning of the mastering management program we have today young professionals they are accomplished professionally of course they are accomplished academically but moreover we see them transforming over three years of their stay at a business school if i had a student in front of me right now I would first tell them that i am very happy to see them again i really have an attachment to the student population and i really love to to keep that relationship years after years with generations of students i have been teaching for instance the uniqueness of the program appeals even more clearly than at the beginning it's really a program for pioneers it's really a program for people who are brave bold who Ire interested in discovering things there's a uniqueness of the experience in three countries for sure three continents there's the uniqueness of different academic traditions but moreover there's the uniqueness of a group of students that have incredible ideas and projects and are ready and happy to take on incredible challenges on this very special day i wish for the students to continue being learners to grow, to develop as human beings and as professionals to defend promote the values of the school and have a positive impact on future generations

They travelled the world through this Global Master in Management - GETT programme and they are sharing with you their experience.
So I'm Jeremie Mou Chin Leung, I come from French Polynesia, Tahiti.
And I'm a GETT master's student at EDHEC Business School. When you look at each component of the GETT programme, the first thing is global.
So "global", because of the international dimension. that I was looking for, since I come from French Polynesia. So I wanted to travel around the world. There's "global" in the way that you will get knowledge from every industry, that are affected by technology right now. And then you have "economic transformation".
So right now, we're literally in a world in a perpetual movement, in a dynamic which is very difficult to apprehend and to understand. And technology, just because I'm kind of a geek actually, I learned coding all by myself two years ago. So collectively, the GETT acronym was a perfect match for me. There is no end you know, and I think this totally corresponds to me because I come from French Polynesia and I am very curious. Because it's a small island, lost in the middle of nowhere. And I had to check on the internet, to find knowledge to improve as a person, and to know a lot of things over the world. So yeah, technology I think really match my personality and that's why I chose the GETT programme.
Paris is one of the best city to study, because it's the capital of France. So the fact that EDHEC has a campus in Paris, is a real opportunity. The location is perfect, as we're near to the Silicon Sentier, which is the equivalent of the Silicon Valley.
I had a chance to do my summer internship in Sao Paulo, in Brazil, in a crypto FinTech from San Francisco. And they used the blockchain to provide a solution for international payments. So this was my last experience in a technology industry, but I also expect from the GETT programme to gain these business abilities. And then I wish, I would create a combination of these two aspects, so the business part and the coding part. And I think this common language, would be very valuable to the recruiters, and I will be able to tell them "okay I'm the right guy for this position".
I just feel really privileged to be a GETT student, because I know that I will have a double degree. I will spend a year in Berkeley. I will visit three continents. I am in a small class and I will create strong ties with my classmates so I think this is the most enjoyable thing about the GETT programme.
I'm currently enrolled in the GETT programme, which is jointly offered by EDHEC Business School, Sungkyunkwan Graduate School of Business and University of California, Berkeley.
First of all, I was always interested in working at the intersection of emerging technology and business. And this programme is designed in a way, where we get exposed to a lot of emerging tech. Then again, I was deeply inspired by my mentor who had actually worked in 108 countries. And I think the design of this programme is such, that it could unlock these markets for me as well in the future.
One great thing about the GETT programme, that I think lacks in other international master's programmes, is that I am not bound to one place or one location or even to a campus. For example during my semester in Paris, I believed that the whole city was my campus. And now, here I am at Sungkyunkwan, which is a very beautiful ultra-modern campus. The other thing is, that the international dimension that I get from my education. I am going to be exposed to three different cultures, three different ways of life and working styles. Four months ago, I was getting used to the French culture and the way of life. I was eating baguettes with butter in the mornings. And now I've switched it up with kimchi and rice. That's something that I would never have expected from myself a year ago, and the challenges that I've faced on a daily basis have radically changed who I am as a person. When you live abroad, you start trusting your instincts more. You start making decisions that have repercussions, and you start learning how to live with these decisions every day. And that's something that I've seen, has made me grow as a person quite a lot.
So far we've had some incredibly eye-opening courses. For instance, just today, we had a course on crypt economics and blockchain technology. And I learned that Korea, and especially Seoul, is literally the Silicon Valley when it comes to blockchain.
Well a couple of years ago, I couldn't have pointed out Seoul on a map but now that I'm here, I realised that this city is literally at the forefront of cutting-edge technology. For example, I've been here for months and I haven't had to buy a SIM card, because there's Wi-Fi everywhere. While there are thousands of programmes one can choose from, while looking for an international master's programme, especially in business... I was looking for something off the beaten track, something radically new, and something radically different that would set myself apart five years, ten years down the line. And that's why I chose the GETT programme.
[Speaker: Utkarsh Arora. GETT Graduate]
Hi I'm Utkarsh and I'm Indian.
[Speaker: Chloé Potier. GETT Graduate]
Hi I'm Chloe and I'm French
[Speaker: Asmaa Taki. GETT Graduate]
Hi I'm Asmaa and I'm Moroccan.
Asmaa:
So my first day attending get was my second year at a deck and I remember like meeting 40 people I haven't especially met before at EDHEC, and I was like "okay so we're gonna start an experience for three years all together so I better know them well, because we are going to share a lot".
Utkarsh:
My first day at the GETT programme was pretty interesting. I think I woke up at seven and spent one hour getting lost in the Parisian metro, but then when I finally found the campus... my god it was impressive! Meeting all my colleagues, the professors... just taking note of what the programme would look like, was so exciting and I think it's one of the days that i won't really forget for a long time to come.
Chloé:
The biggest takeaway, I remember from the programme, is the capacity to adapt to all the situations because with this programme we went to Seoul, and we did other things like an entrepreneurship project. So yes, I think it's my biggest takeaway.
Utkarsh:
For me, my biggest takeaway from the programme would be, it completely changed my outlook towards how I view life and business especially. Now I feel like the world is my oyster. I'm so used to dealing with people from different countries and culture, it just seems like it comes naturally to me. This is something I couldn't really imagine before joining the programme. So that's a really big thing that happened in my life over the last three years.
Asmaa:
The main takeaways from this programme is basically also today, because it's the day where i'll be graduating, and of course it's the end of the whole cycle. So I'm so happy to be here today.
Chloé:
I think what is unique with this programme is the open-mindedness it offers. We met many people from different countries so it offers us an open-mindedness that I think is really unique in a business track.
Asmaa:
With GETT we were able to discover ourselves and decide in what we want to evolve and where we want to go and the programme was definitely made to help us grow in either finance, marketing, entrepreneurial...
Utkarsh:
What's so unique about the GETT programme, is that it focuses really on tech and entrepreneurship in an international environment. This morning I found myself pitching to a Silicon Valley incubator a project based around NFTs and the Metaverse, so coming from there, I realised that this is something that we don't find anywhere else in other master's programmes, and it's really helped me to find my niche in my career.
Asmaa:
Being part of the first cohort, on my side, it was a bit of a risk to take as I was the first one, first cohort, and the programme was launched three or four months before me joining it, so I was like "i don't have any graduate students from this programme, I don't know what are the outputs of this programme", but still, on paper, it was very appealing with all the opportunities we had in Seoul, in Berkeley, in Lille as well... It was a challenge, it was a risk but I took it and I don't regret it at all.
Chloé:
The GETT programme, I think, is a big challenge but you have to take it.
My name is Marie.
I've always been interested in technology but I've always had a major interest for fashion. I've been wishing to work for the luxury industry for many years now, and upon many encounters, exhibitions, readings... I have come to realise that the fashion industry, like any industry, is facing a major reshaping due to digital transformation. And this is why I chose the GETT programme. This industry will lead new talents and will need new people, to think about the long term, to think about how to preserve the authenticity of their brands, while being connected. We can see that thanks to Big Data, thanks to AI, we can propose a more customised service. And if we want to preserve this industry, we have to use what we have within our reach which is technology. Starting off the GETT programme in Paris, is really a thrilling experience because the campus is relocated at the heart of Paris. So we are literally one minute by walk from the Opera, we are five minutes walk from Place Vendome, ten minutes walk from le Louvre, from la Comedie Francaise... So you really are immersed in that Parisian lifestyle. I'm quite fond of English poetry and there's one poet I really adore, who's Wordsworth. And he has a very short poem and it starts with a simple sentence, that really defines the person I'd like to be: "she dwelt among the Untrodden ways".
I think being innovative, being creative even for an old industry like the fashion industry, or the luxury industry, is important. What's surprising is that the GETT programme really gives you the keys in order to understand basically how our economic life works now. Which is quite something actually, it's a very modern programme, so you don't have all content about old theories. It's connecting to now, to the present, and I think this is something we really need to value and promote, because it helps us really become great actors of the future economic life.
It will not only be three years of studying and reading books, I think it will be three years of making sense of what I want to do with my life.
So I'm Asmaa Taki, I'm from Morocco Casablanca and currently, I'm in the second year of the GETT programme. I'm currently with the first cohort of the Global Economic Transformation and Technology programme in Berkeley.
By having this opportunity to be in the B area, we are in touch with innovative companies and startups. So through this programme, we have discovered innovation is something very specific and it appears on different levels from the business model innovation to process innovation and try to lay the product innovation.
Here today in Berkeley, what I notice the most, is that they encourage you every time in every situation and I think this is amazing.
GETT is a long-term project. In like 8 to 10 years, I want to take over the family business... And making it to EDHEC, to the GETT programme, is a way to have a comprehensive knowledge of businesses that are applied to the innovation areas.
Innovation in the Bay Area is about looking at the large industries that haven't changed that much in the past and replacing it with new technologies that serve exactly the same need with a more efficient way. And I think this is the point too, that interests me the most in this programme. To try to change the industry of my father's company in Morocco, which operates in electricity and automation. And I think this is an industry, that hasn't changed that much in the past. With this programme, I had the opportunity to witness innovation in Asia and America and try to have this big picture of innovation and bring it back to Morocco.

The International Students Office – a team you can trust
Moving to a foreign country can be daunting, so it’s reassuring to know that the International Students Office (ISO) is there to help. The ISO welcomes more than 3,000 international students annually, helping them to settle in France and lending them support in daily life. It organises orientation events and multicultural seminars to welcome them to the EDHEC campuses in Lille and Nice. The team guides students through administrative procedures before their arrival and during their stay and answers any questions they may have about French systems (medical and home insurance, banking, resident permits, etc.).
Finding you a home from home
Once officially enrolled, we will help you to find suitable accommodation, either in an EDHEC residence or privately owned accommodation. The International Students Office is on hand to provide you with a list of apartments, halls of residence and other types of housing that fit your criteria. You can even ‘visit’ them virtually on our new Housing website. Our team will do everything they can to make arrangements with the owner and secure your booking. They can also arrange to pick you up from the airport on your arrival (where possible) and take you directly to your new home. The International Students Office also organises orientation events and integration seminars to welcome international students to the EDHEC campuses.
Untangling the red tape
EU nationals
European Union students can live and study in France as long as they have a national ID card. No passport or visa are required.
Non-EU nationals
Before arriving in France, students from outside the European Union must obtain a student visa from the French embassy in their country of origin or residence. Non-EU students must also have a valid passport from their country of origin.
One of the requirements for most visa applications is proof of accommodation in France. EDHEC's International Office is familiar with the visa formalities for most countries and will provide you with the necessary paperwork to complete. If you are concerned about your visa application, you can contact the International Office, provided you have already checked the relevant pages in the Welcome Guide and contacted your local embassy.

International Student Office | EDHEC Business School
[Music] Title: “International Student Office”
I just got accepted at EDHEC business school. Now I need to organise my arrival and find
accommodation. Luckily the international students office helped me all along this process.
All good, I'm ready. It is now time to reach France. On arrival, three key moments are organised to help me settle in: the welcome session, the services fair and the integration day.
I get a lot of practical information on different topics such as health insurance, public transportation, life in the city, and so on.
I met representatives from different EDHEC departments and partners during the service fair.
I participate in group activities, meet new friends and discover the campus.
Throughout the year, I visit ISO whenever I need assistance in my daily life in France.
Time flies, my experience at EDHEC is coming to an end. The international student office has been of great support before and during my stay, and it will remain available even after my departure.
Thank you to the International Students Office - Camilla Garcia Biel
[Music] A big “Thank you” to the International Student Office.
Camilla Garcia Biel. MiM Business Management student. Class of 2022.
So my name is Camila Garcia Biel. I'm a 26 year old international student from Peru, I'm doing the MiM track which is a three-year-long programme. The first year, you start with basic courses, with administrative courses. Then there is a year for professional immersion, and then I specialised in strategic finance and commercial intelligence. The most important thing is that out of all the business schools in France, EDHEC was the only one to come to Lima and actually meet the prospective students. After that I was completely sold. As soon as I knew that I was gonna come here, I was enrolled et cetera.
The first contact you have is with the international student office and they absolutely help you with everything. Starting with the visa process, with the housing process... They also help with anything you really need.
So arriving in France, what surprised me, for very good like very positive, was the international environment that I experienced living in the residence and coming to school. I was immediately in contact with people from different countries that I had never seen. And what scared me a little bit, was that the French level that i had before coming and the French level needed to be here. The gap was obvious, but people, especially in Lille, were very nice when I was trying to communicate with them. Even if i was using some English words or even some Spanish words, they were really nice.
The reason why I chose France as my home, is that it's the perfect balance from a latino point of view of the latin culture and the European culture. In the daylight you can see the difference and in the nightlife you can see the similarities. Differences and similarities that, at the end, really helped me develop myself as a person. And I think that's something that every international goes through and learns from. My first memory at EDHEC, it's the full day as i call it. It's the first day that we gather in the main hall and then we have outdoors activities, and then we eat together, they introduce us to the programme, they introduce us to the school. Being able to experience the location and the classes and the buildings, which are amazing, it's like a reality shock but a very positive one.
So if i had the all the amazing team from the ISO or the international student office members in front of me, the first thing that i would say would be definitely "thank you"!
Thank you, and thank you... Thank you for your help, thank you for your patience, thank you for your time. They really make the difference in the transition. The job that they're doing in that assistance, it's beyond what I've heard from other friends from other schools, from even other countries. For example, during the pandemic, they were very active and they helped us. And they sent us links for call centres, in case you needed to talk to someone, like psychological call centres and nutritionists, like they really take care of us in a very global aspect. I would just say thank you many times. The international office helps us because for example, they organise different cultural nights. The school has a lot of associations and many of them work with international students, for example, there's one called "Open Up" and they organise trips for international students. There are many ways to feel not or not feel homesick, and at the end of the course, it's a very amazing place to make amazing friends and that also helps.

The difference between business management and technology management lies in their focus and the expertise they cultivate. Business management is based on commercial expertise, strategic planning and operational leadership across industries. Specialised professionals have a comprehensive understanding of business operations, including finance, marketing and human resources. They usually have a business profile to maximise efficiency, profitability and organisational performance.
In contrast, technology management is distinctly focused on the management of technology within organisations. It requires a profile that combines technical expertise and managerial skills to guide the development, implementation and use of technology. Such managers play a fundamental role in bridging the gap between the technical teams and business units and developing a strong synergy. They must create real value from technology investments and ensure that they are aligned with broader business objectives.
Technology management also focuses on the sustainability and ethical considerations of new technologies. They must not only advance the company’s objectives, but also meet regulatory requirements and societal expectations. You can access many jobs where technological management plays a central role, such as data analyst, banking investment analyst, sustainability architect. Such skill can also be strategic for consultants in management and strategy.
Both business and technology management have the ultimate goal of enhancing organisational performance. However, the skills and environments in which they operate are very different, although both require strong management skills. Business management will be more concerned with business operations in general, while technology management will focus on technology innovation and implementation.
Ultimately, both play a central role in organisations and whether you want to work in one or the other is a decision that must take into account your aspirations and personal interests. But if your goal is to be a leader in emerging industries and transform your organisation, the Global MiM - Global Economic Transformation & Technology Track is the perfect choice.
A Master’s degree in technology management and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) are both prestigious degrees, but with different programme objectives and target audiences. Both degrees are designed to help students gain competitive management skills. Some MBAs offer specialisations related to technology management, but in general, the two programmes cater to different career paths and educational expectations.
The primary aim of a Master's degree in technology management is to help you develop your management skills in the implementation of technology in organisations. This programme typically focuses on topics such as data management, innovation management, digital marketing, AI and machine learning. You will become a leader who can manage technology-driven projects and bring innovation to your organisation. This is the ideal Master for students who want to continue their curriculum and already have a background in technology and engineering and are interested in management roles. As for EDHEC Business School's MiM, we are looking for talented students from diverse backgrounds with strong academic achievements and potential for growth and professional success.
On the other hand, while an MBA may address technology management issues and even be specialised, such a programme tends to focus on leadership and management in a broader sense. Coursework typically includes finance, marketing or strategic management. The aim of an MBA is to help professionals with years of experience to develop their skills to achieve leadership and senior roles in their organisations.
The duration of programmes is usually similar. A Master in Management and an MBA usually take around two years to complete. If you choose EDHEC Business School's Global MiM - Global Economic Transformation & Technology Track, your studies will last three years: two years of academic course with one year of professional immersion in between.
EDHEC Business School’s Global Master in Management - GETT programme is perfect for you if your goal is to continue your studies to develop your skills and become a leader in innovation.
