Undergraduate programs

Discover our undergraduate programs in management, marketing, business development, international trade...

Our Bachelors allow you to obtain a state-recognized diploma (Grade de Licence) of 3 or 4 years of higher education.

What is a Bachelor’s Degree?

Bachelor's degrees are programs accessible after completing a high school diploma, 60/120 ECTS credits for direct entry in year 2/3. In French business schools and international universities, you will typically find two types of Bachelor's programs: 
• The Bachelor's degree, which is a 3-year program that awards 180 ECTS credits
• The BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration), which is a 4-year program that awards 240 ECTS credits

These business school programs often offer two initial years of general management courses before allowing you to choose a specialization, typically in fields such as management, marketing, business, finance, and more. Their key strengths include: 
Clear professionalization with internships and sometimes work-study opportunities. 
Genuine international exposure: academic exchanges, internships abroad, language courses, multicultural learning environments, and more. 
Flexible career paths: You can choose to enter the job market in France or abroad, or continue your studies with a Master or MSc (Master of Science).
