 Thinking
of studying in France? The Aix-en-Provence
IAE is part of the Aix-Marseille University, located
in the South of France, within France’s second
largest metropolitan area after Paris. The Institut
d’Administration des Entreprises (IAE) was founded
in 1955, becoming the first graduate School of Management
in the French public University. Dedicated to postgraduate
education and research, it developed throughout the
years a variety of master programmes in specialised
fields of management, adapting constantly to the needs
of the business world. The IAE-Aix was awarded the European
EQUIS accreditation in 1999.
Looking for a
one-year Specialised MBA Programme?
In our fast changing
business world participants have difficulties to stop
working for two years in the middle of their nascent
career. After a few years of work experience they should
be in charge of a project, not discovering management
principles. More and more participants have a management
training in their undergraduate studies and do not need
all the basic courses of a general MBA. Yet taking some
electives after the basic courses is still not enough
to become a strong professional in a field constantly
evolving.Most of the new exciting jobs will not be in
the old economy or even in the dot.com economy but at
the interface of these two worlds. They will have to
be invented and defined those who hold them.
