Hi All,



I have received admit from IESEG Paris MBA in leadership and coding. How is the course considering it's a new course and job prospect. I wish to work in France post MBA and have completed my Bachelor's degree in French from Indian university (Delhi University) which is equivalent to B2 DELF, also I have near to 6 year of experience working in French marketplace and currently working as Senior Business analyst for French company Teleperformance in India. Prior to that, I was working for Amazon as Risk investigator for French marketplace in India.



Please guide and help.

It looks like a joint venture between IESEG and Le Wagon, a well known company that runs intensive coding bootcamps, typically to facilitate career switchers into software developer roles and similar.

Looking at the curriculum, this doesn't really look like a true MBA in the sense that the vast majority of the learning seems to be geared around technology. For example in the listed programme highlights is 'Strategizing for digital transformations: covering core topics such as strategy, corporate finance; financial accounting, business economics and cycles as well as the foundations of programming."

An MBA is a general management degree. I'd be worried this is far too technology industry focused. Some of the specialisations include big data, cyber security and developing web applications. These aren't really the skills you need in typical MBA type job roles.

 You need to think about your career goals and whether this degree will support them.  This course looks a bit similar to Boston's dual degree MBA/MS course but that is a 21 month programme which includes a significant 32 credit core MBA curriculum.  

I'm not sure what role that degree prepares people for. You get a shallow level of functional vocabulary across a wide range of business and technical subjects, but you won't get hired into a general management or development role with vocabulary. An masters degree in some business or technology function taught in French at a state university or grande ecole would be a safer, cheaper investment.
