The approfondissement in economics completes the baccalaureate program in economics and management. It allows the student to gain a deeper understanding of the subject in workshop-seminars (15 credits) as well as taking courses in economics (15 credits) which are not given as part of his/her baccalaureate program.

There are no entry requirements for students in the 2nd year of the ECGE baccalaureate, whatever their future choice of master's (in economics or in management).
