Focus on multicultural business management

I have been quite satisfied by the quality of teaching at Audencia. The lecturers and professors are knowledgeable and place an emphasis on professionalism and leveraging culture in business dealings.

Just a big NO-NO

As an international student attending the MBA WINE AND SPIRITS BUSINESS program and spending 32 thousand euros (besides the need of quitting my job, move, find an accommodation and change lifestyle) I would say that the school is worth less then half of what it costs. The only good aspects of it are the big students’ communities, the commitment of the international office and the quality of some teachers who cannot really give their best because they’re hampered by the strict organisation of the school programs. Administration, services and the overall school organisation are really below expectations and the educational level is just average despite the cost and the “reputation”. Everyone (classmates, other international students and french ones from all courses and years) complained about the fact that “the school used to be a good one, but now is just bad”!
