Program Overview

Program Description:

KEDGE Business School is one of only 1% of Business Schools in the world to hold the Triple Crown in business accreditation (AMBA, EQUIS & AACSB). There are two main campuses for students to school from - Marseille and Bordeaux. In Bordeaux, the campus is located twenty minutes from the city center by tram. In Marseille, the campus is divided into two sections. Situated in the Calanques national park, the Luminy campus places modern architecture in a natural environment. It is twenty minutes from the city center by bus, and a few kilometres from Cassis. The La Joliette campus (Espaces Gaymard/Grand Large) for continuing education students, is located in Marseilles' city centre in the La Joliette business district. For students seeking courses in English, the Marseille campus will have more courses options available.

Choosing Courses Abroad

This program does not have pre-approved classes. It is your responsibility to select courses and get them approved for transfer credit. To facilitate this process, you will complete the Petition for Transfer of Credit (PTC) Form. You will have access to the PTC form when you open an application.

You are STRONGLY ENCOURAGED to look at this institution’s courses ahead of time to see how they will match up to your Mason degree requirements. Talk to your academic advisor about what courses you will need to receive credit for during your time abroad to stay on-track for your degree. When looking at courses keep in mind that 1) you will have to be enrolled full-time while abroad, and 2) similarly to Mason, course schedules can change. We recommend having twice as many courses approved as necessary.

How to Find Courses
Students have the option of enrolling in courses at either the Marseille campus or the Bordeaux campus. At Marseille, students can either take courses through the IBBA programme or the KEDGE Bachelor program. At Bordeaux, juniors and seniors can take courses from the first year of the Master in Management Programme.
