Curriculum

Year 1

Students joining the M1 programme at SKEMA will study Advanced Business Management. This is the first year of a two-year master programme whose principal aim is to help you develop a deeper understanding of business management principles and provide you with an opportunity to develop your international experience.

All courses are taught in English and followed by students across all SKEMA campuses. Depending on your academic background and choice of M1 programme, you will study two prerequisite courses and one refresher course or elective.

The prerequisite courses will be taught as of the beginning of the autumn semester. You may choose one "Academy Profile" course that allows you to gain further experience in a chosen academic field.

During the autumn semester, you will also be asked to choose your spring track choice.

You may choose between:
• an international campus,
• the CFA Level 1 specialisation (Paris campus only)
• undertake a work experience year (césure) from January to December before returning to complete your M1 year in January with an academic semester on an international campus, CFA Level 1 or an exchange with one of our university exchange partners.

Year 2

Specialisation and getting into the world of work

During the second year, students acquire a specialisation. This final-year specialisation and internship are key to employability.

This year’s teaching and content is entirely in English as part of an MSc (for students enrolled in the specialised masters, teaching is also carried out in French).

Students may do this year on any of SKEMA’s campuses worldwide (one semester or one year), in academic exchange (one semester or one year), as a double degree (“Master 2” with our partners) or in apprenticeship (all French campuses).

Specialisation

In the second and final year of the Master in Management, students choose a specialisation to get ready for the world of work.
