In our increasingly interconnected world, the ESSEC Global MBA is a singular opportunity for passionate, international management professionals looking to shine. The program offers cutting-edge management education, both in and out of the classroom, as well as longstanding ties with the most innovative companies around the world. Very much in line with ESSEC’s social and environmental values, the ESSEC Global MBA program is designed to bring success and meaning to dedicated leaders who want to make an impact.
The boutique style 12-month full time MBA program is offered in France with two unique specializations, both anchored in sustainability and digital transformation: Strategy & Digital Leadership (SDL) or Luxury Brand Management (LBM). Core courses include those in strategic management, economics and sustainable finance, whereas track-specific courses go deeper into their respective fields. SDL features courses in strategic consulting, big data and AI for business and digital marketing for example, whereas the LBM track offers classes in digital transformation of luxury, sustainable luxury and managing luxury sectors.
In the words of Arvind Raman, Alumnus, class of 2021 LBM track,
The program provides unparalleled exposure to the inner workings of the industry. Beyond the classroom, participants go on business trips (real and online) to key markets across the globe, which combine cultural and professional activities for immersive networking opportunities and an exploration of how business is conducted worldwide (Watch his entire interview here)
With its tailored approach, the program attracts a highly diverse cohort, in terms of nationality and work experience, with a 50-50 ratio of female and male participants. The average participant is 30 years old with 6 years of professional experience. From kickoff integration week in the winegrowing region of Chablis, France and team-building and community building activities during the Splash Project, to track-specific field trips and expansive networking experiences, ESSEC Global MBA participants have robust resources all along their journey. Talent Center activities like speaker series, career coaching and mentorship programs are made available to all participants (watch this webinar dedicated to the Talent Center to learn more)
No matter the track, the program never loses sight of the individual participants, providing tailored support all the way to job placement.
In the words of Yatin Nanda, Alumnus, class of 2021 SDL track,
“ESSEC really goes that extra mile to focus its full weight on each student, and helped me land a great job. That’s the power of ESSEC.” (watch entire interview here)
With 78% of ESSEC Global MBA graduates obtaining a job offer within 4 months of graduation, and 85% securing a promotion within 6 to 12 months in a new position, the statistics speak for themselves.
