PROGRAMME
Master in Management

ACADEMIC OFFER
From a selection of approximately 70 electives depending on the semester, taught in
French or English, we provide a stimulating environment for students to develop their
skills and knowledge.

● 30-hour electives taught 3h per session once a week, during 10 weeks = 5 ECTS
● 15-hour electives taught 3h per session, during 5 weeks = 2.5 ECTS, starting
either at the beginning of the semester or mid-semester

The maximum workload authorised is 180 hours (30 ECTS) per semester, which is a
maximum of 6 courses of 30 hours, or a combination of 30-hour and 15-hour courses
(excluding language classes). Note that that students need to be registered for at least
5 ECTS (1x 30h course or 2x 15h courses) during their exchange semester.

The Summer “semester” is an intensive 4-week study programme offering a limited

number of regular electives (120 hours - 20 ECTS maximum). 1 student enrolled in the
summer semester counts as half a spot in our balances.

LANGUAGE COURSE
Exchange students may enrol upon arrival in a weekly French class, at no additional
cost. The course is 2 hours per week and is for credit (1 ECTS). All French levels are
accepted, as the course will divide students into groups. Note that there is also
possibility to attend the French course for no credit as an auditor.

PEDAGOGY
Innovative teaching, based on case studies, group projects, workshops, lectures
provided by faculty and executives from ESCP's corporate partners, give students all the
skills they need to enter the job market.

EXAMS
Final exams are held during the last course session. The final assessment for electives
might include: essays, in-class presentations, written quizzes and examinations, and
group projects.
