There are many more (and some better reputed) English-language MBAs in France, e.g. INSEAD, HEC, ESCP-EAG, ESG...

Personally, I wouldn't choose Schiller, never heard of them, actually. Anyways, like xBERG says, INSEAD and HEC are top notch schools in Europe with international rep so that is where I would apply first. Bonne chance!

I am looking for an MBA in Paris, but conducted in English and I have chosen European MBA offered by the ESG. However, I don't know the difference between an ordinary MBA and a European one. Can anyone help me in this? thank you very much in advance.

Hi Nino, I have been thinking about this program as well and I believe they just want to emphasize that the European MBA is focussing on doing business in Europe, as opposed to their Euro China MBA which focusses on China business... I guess in the end the degree is just an MBA with a specialization. Did you already apply?

Dear Pascal, thank you very much for clarification. I haven't applied yet. I think I will do it next year. The only thing that I am thinking about is availability of the job opportunities there, because according to the info given on their site, students are supposed to work throughout the academic year.

IF you are a EU citizens you shouldn't run into much difficulties if you want to work in France. As far as availability is concerned, it is probably indispensible for most jobs to know French. After all English isn't that widespread in France..

Roland, do you think it is that easy to get an appropriate job in France? Or do you just refer to getting a work permit? I have heard that the job market in France is not the best right now (even if you speak French)....

I have heard the same but these things can change very fast. If you want to study in for an "Euorpean" mba in France, I would say to go for it because it can help you even if you do not end up living in France...and if your French is as bad as mine :) Sven

As I am from Belgium and have studied until now in Belgium and NL only, I 'm looking for an MBA in France to justify some study experience abroad.
Can anyone inform me which French MBA has an integrated program with courses in Partner Universities of other countries?
Studies should be in English or French (or Dutch, but that probabely does not help).

I strongly advise you INSEAD. Excellent MBA! On top of it, if you do the full time MBA you will have the chance to study in Singapore for some time during study year. Attention: Fees are quite high, must be about 45 000? by now.
Otherwise HEC has great reputation, and aswell offer some MBAs with integrated studies abroad. Be aware, it is a very French type of school, INSEAD is more international.
Do you consider Canada as well?

No, Canada is not an option, but maybe Switzerland could be interesting.
Are there some good schools in French speaking Switzerland ?

hullo, i did some research for mba in france, and since was confused, i stick with schools with triple accreditation, such grenoble (19,000 euro after grant or 22000 before grant), and EDHEC in nice (23,000 euro). also audencia may be of choice (17000), triple accred. that if you can't afford living in Paris for INSEAD (50,000 plus euro) or HEC --well, i can't so have to shop around. hope this help, cheers

Thanks for your advise Noya. It's true that living costs are so much higher in Paris than in "Province". I guess I will have an extensive comparison of costs, and then decide for the best school among the affordable ones.
Might not be HEC or INSEAD..

Hello Noya,
ok I will find out more about those schools EDHEC, Audencia, E.M. Lyon and Grenoble B-School, see if there is something that matches my needs.
Do you have an idea about integrated exchange programs of those 4 schools by any chance? I would greatly appreciate a stay in an additional country while doing my MBA.
Thanks a lot,
Bert

Hi Bert,
Too bad you're not interested in Canada, there are some good schools!
Switzerland choice is a bit limited as far as top schools are concerned. IMD is top, as you can tell because you find it in the international rankings. I heard St. Gallen is very good as well.

Hello, i saw on Audencia's Web site you can have feb-june quarter in Shanghai's Tongji university (though if you click it wiill take you to a chinese-speaking page). Grenoble and Edhec didn't specify in its web site, but if you see the admission procedures, it seemed they do. maybe best you ask them. :)
Joergalbers, i am actually interested to do canada mba. is HEC in montreal good? and, how's the french there? i heard it's very different than language in france? thanks
