The Master in Management (Programme Grande École ESC Dijon) was established in 1900 and is the main degree programme offered by Burgundy School of Business. It is designed as a three-year programme after a minimum of two years study at university level. This degree is recognized as a full Master's degree (levels 1 and 2) in the new European higher education system (Bachelor, Master, and Doctorate). It is fully accredited by the French Ministry of Education ("Grade de Master").

"Nowadays over 60 % of managing directors and chief executives in France's 100 largest firms are graduates of the Grandes Écoles. A wide range of courses enable them to obtain top positions and offer them different career possibilities." (Extract from the Conférence des Grandes Ecoles website)
