Programme management

IAG Département d'administration et de gestion

Responsable académique : Per Joakim Agrell

Study objectives

The one year master's programme in Management Sciences is designed for university graduates from all faculties (Sciences, Applied Sciences, Law, the Arts, ...) or assimilated faculties (Industrial Engineering, ...) who wish to acquire complementary training in management and administration. In one year of studies, it covers the essentials from the basic graduate programme focusing on the management courses proper. This master's diploma entitles access to the specialised degree courses (DES) of the department. Professionally active participants have the possibility to spread their programme over more than one academic year.

This master's programme is also designed for university graduates who, having had at least 3 years work experience, wish to update their knowledge and integrate it with a view to the systematic handling of management problems.

Admission conditions

All university graduates or equivalent (industrial engineers, etc.) are entitled access to the Master's programme in Management, 60 credits.

Admission applications are conducted on the basis of analysis of each individual case. The Admission Committee is in charge of candidate admission and of approving the programme on the basis of the university degrees held and the motivation and professional experience of each applicant.

The Committee reserves the right to add up to 15 credits worth of supplementary courses to the programme of any candidate lacking the basic requirements in economic sciences, mathematics or statistics :

Candidates with a parallel professional activity may attach a request for the programme to be spread over two years, via the secretary for academic studies.

The programme is organised in two sections - day courses and evening courses. The number of places for the evening programme being limited, priority is given to candidates who have a minimum of three years professional experience and who qualify for having the programme spread over a two year period.

Evaluation

The deliberation covers the ensemble of the courses included in the student's programme and respects the weight of the credits attached to each course. In the case of added prerequisites to the programme, those courses will be assessed in the final evaluation.

Positioning of the degree within the University cursus

The Master of Management Sciences, entitles acces, in the case of successful completion, (application for a derrogation for the grade may be requested and will be analysed on a case by case basis), to the programme of the 3rd cycle - specialisation in Economics and Management (DES in Economics and Management ), and to the management programme of the 3rd cycle as a preparation for doctoral research (DEA in Management Sciences).
