The provisional general schedule common to the four programs will give you an idea of the course sequencing. All courses are taught by leading professors.

A choice of four programs is offered on the basis of 2.5 hours per day:

Management: the European Approach

Aim: To introduce students to the French and European context in management by providing them with the analytical tools needed to better understand both the specificity of the French and European management context, and the cultural differences between Europe and the rest of the world.

Information Technology in Europe

Aim: To introduce students to the French and European context in Telecommunications and Information Technology: the institutional and legal context, European IT companies’ strategies, and IT impact on European industry via innovative applications.

Cross-Cultural Approach to French Society

Aim: To introduce students to French society, intercultural awareness and the communication challenges created by cultural diversity.

Designing Games

Aim: To develop a simple, yet fun and challenging, computer video game following a problem-based learning approach where emphasis is on working in groups, on open problems, supported by an expert facilitator. The main learning objective is teamwork for problem solving.

Common to all programs: French classes

The afternoon is dedicated to the learning of French language (2 hours every day). During the first class, students take tests and are split into groups according to their level. The advanced level group only opens with a minimum of 8 students.

Aim: To allow students, based on their level of French, either to be introduced to the language for practical use or to improve their proficiency in the language.
