Master 1 International Management

Learning Objectives

First year of the Master’s program taught 100% in English

Choose MIM to initiate or continue a management curriculum with an international dimension. MIM is:

Entirely taught in English (lectures, presentations, group work and reports);
Structured to encourage student participation and students-lecturers interactions. This “Anglo-Saxon” type of pedagogy is possible thanks to the limited size of the cohort: no more than 35 students per class;
Open to foreign students, which allows for intercultural competencies development and prepares the students to manage or work within multicultural teams;
Compliant with the learning objectives of M1 at EM Normandie while adding a more international perspective. This allows students to choose freely among all M2 specializations in English or in French;

MIM is composed of two 30 ECTS credits semesters, i.e. 60 ECTS credits for the whole year: Fall Semester (from early September to mid December) and Spring Semester (from mid-January to mid May).

The program covers all required competencies to access M2 specializations while adding a more international perspective to each subject. Lecturers are either professional managers acknowledged for their competency in a specific field, professors from English speaking partner universities or bilingual full time professors of EM Normandie.
