EDHEC Business School Speciality : Management
programme: Business Administration in Management

Courses are varied and include both theoretical and practical examples.

Professors include many ‘real life’ examples from the business world (like case studies). Students are also given some projects throughout each year.

The school is continuously developing partnerships with other universities all over the world and even offers exclusive international programmes with some of them.

Top companies come to the campus many times each year, with occasional exclusive recruitment sessions. They also participate to a yearly career fair (exclusively for EDHEC students) with over 120 companies.

The student union life is particularly developed. There are numerous unions in many fields.

I graduated from the BBA program at EDHEC in 2021 and my time there was a mix of highs and lows. On the positive side, the practical experience gained through mandatory internships was invaluable. These opportunities provided real-world experience and helped me build a strong professional network.
The campus facilities are excellent, modern, and well-maintained.
Academically, however, I didn’t really like all the subjects but it was still good.
So in general it was great for me and pushed me in my actual professional career.

As a first-year BBA student at EDHEC Lille, here’s what I think.
First of all it was great to find a french great business school with an english track.
Integration went really smoothly thanks to the welcoming atmosphere on campus. The teachers are passionate and approachable, which makes the classes exciting and interactive. I particularly appreciate the group projects, which allow us to put into practice what we’re learning.
Knowing that the BBA program in Lille is the best in France is very reassuring for the future.
And I’m convinced by the Lille campus because I didn’t want to live in a metropolis for my studies.
Very satisfied.

First, I was quite hesitant at first about my choice of school because I was accepted into most of the good business schools.
I first decided to join this school for its national ranking but even more for the ranking of the program which is the first in France.
I absolutely do not regret my choice, because I found everything I was looking for without even leaving France.
The first thing that interested me the most after joining the school was the diversity of the students and their mix, something that I look for because since I am on the English track there are a lot of international students.
Concerning the courses there are some which are not at all interesting and others which are incredible but it all depends on tastes and then the advantage is that the courses are not always the same throughout the semester and years.

To begin with, I would like to say that since I joined I have greatly appreciated this school.
My level in English, mainly in addition to certain languages, has evolved considerably on the one hand thanks to our program in which we have hybrid subjects between English and French and then thanks to the students who come from so many different places and with whom Discussions are also like exercises.
I also learned new things about a lot of culture, without even leaving my native country, and speaking of moving, the school offers a lot of opportunities, exchanges which are incredible, but which are on the other hand dependent on our educational level.
For example, I had the chance to do an exchange in Sweden, a country I had never visited and the experience was memorable.
And then, of course, I don’t often dwell on it, but the materials are very good too, very homogeneous and well balanced.

I joined EDHEC as a Grande Ecole student (Masters in Management) in 2021 opting for the gap year to enrich my work experience in Europe.

The EDHEC Alumni network is strong & diverse within Europe, allowing you to get a foot in the door of any industry you desire to enter. Personally, EDHEC alumni enlightened me on interesting professional opportunities that I couldn’t have found scouring through job boards.

Another highlight of the BS is EDHEC Career’s Centre, run by Florence Da Costa. The whole team of the Career Centre is highly engaged in maintaining an active relationship with the students, and have years of experience in helping students find professional opportunities in Europe. I used the help of the EDHEC Career Centre to help tweak my application package when I wasn’t getting any interviews and evaluating the contract for my job offer when I did receive one.

Lastly, I enjoyed the practical focus of courses at EDHEC Business School. Every course had a practical component – be it analyzing a financial statement of a company or building a marketing strategy for a consumer goods giant’s dishwashing tablets. No course is swamped by technical depth irrelevant to professional opportunities. Although you won’t finish a course being a specialist, you will be a very handy generalist. I believe that’s what most companies look for here.

The teachers and very kind and helpful. The school is the best bachelor’s in France. You can do a lot of internships and one exchange. You also can do the program in French or in English. I’d recommend it because of this.

The people come from diverse backgrounds and feels good to know about them and work with them. The learning is also very interactive. The professors try to engage with the class. The students are encouraged to pursue activities apart from studies and even holds events.

Great exposure, professors and infrastructure.

Get an overall development of yourself. Good opportunity to learn from people across the world. The students are diverse and the programs are well designs

I am currently studying in EDHEC business school at the M2 level as an exchange student from India. The following stood out for me:
1. Quality of professors
2. Diversity in the class due to a lot of international students
3. Efficient administration and smooth onboarding
The following things could be improved:
1. The course structure and class duration which are 3hrs long
2. More of case-based pedagogy
