Bachelor in Business
Objectives
The conditions of business today are being dramatically altered by the rapid development of international economic relations under the so-called globalisation process. This makes it necessary for current and future business executives to be exposed to various cultures including business cultures and to master more than one international language.
To respond to this need, the Bachelor in Business at Burgundy School of Business has been designed as an English-taught programme, aimed at dynamic undergraduate students of all nationalities, wishing to complete their education by developing their understanding of business and management issues in a country other than their own.
The aim of the programme is to produce young graduates with skills of applying theoretical and practical knowledge of business matters to international management practice.
Special Features of the programme
The Bachelor in Business at Burgundy School of Business was designed both as an educational and life experience:
Study in France, in English:
The Bachelor in Business programme provides students interested in France, but unable to take French-taught classes, with the opportunity to study on a programme in an internationally orientated French business school located in a town and region endowed with huge cultural and historical wealth, in the heart of Europe.
Study in an international environment:
Burgundy School of Business is a truly international business school, with students coming from all over the world. The faculty includes native English speaking faculty members as well as experienced professionals.
Professional perspectives
The programme has a vocational purpose, allowing students to complete previously acquired knowledge and skills with the understanding of key business and management issues. After completing the Bachelor in Business, graduates should therefore be able to obtain positions worldwide in a large variety of companies and in activities such as business administration, banking and finance, and marketing and sales.
Graduates wishing to carry out their studies may also apply for a Masters in International Business at Burgundy School of Business or other types of Masters Programmes in various French business schools.
Admission requirements
