International Economics and Business students told about the study in KEDGE Business School

3rd year «International Economics and Business» students finished their first semester on double degree diploma programme in KEDGE Business School. For them, the experience of an adult independent life is new.

Students note the professors responsiveness and their personal approach to each student. At Business school, communication processes go through online platforms, classrooms are equipped with interactive whiteboards, a cozy «Hub» combines coworking, library and relaxation area. Anna Bondyreva told about the features of the educational process:

Kedge Business School is a top-notch place to obtain high-quality knowledge of business and entrepreneurship. The thing I love the most is that all courses are entirely practical. The strongest emphasis is put on the individual work of students: we need to prepare and defend a project work for every course. All professors have excellent command of their subjects and possess broad working experience. They are always ready to share their knowledge and experience, help and answer any questions. I have no doubts that the experience of studying at Kedge and skills I obtain here will help me to achieve success in the future.

During 2 years of study in France, students get the opportunity to trainee a professional internship in an international company. Ksenia Salnikova is already preparing for it:

At KEDGE Business School, there are many extracurricular classes. Personally, I signed up for a coaching Skype course about the job search with KEDGE representatives, where I got the opportunity to ask a lot of questions. I was told on which sites you can find work abroad, how to write CV and Сover letter correctly. There is also a Career center, which can also help with job search or internship.

The international programme is also an opportunity to make friends and future business partners from different countries, travel, and also gain valuable cultural experience. Speaking about Marseille, students appreciate its dynamism, the friendliness of the locals, as well as the beauty of the landscapes. Ekaterina Ivanchikova shared her impressions:

The double degree diploma programme is an ideal opportunity to improve the level of the English language and at the same time learn a new one - French, meet native speakers to learn faster and more interesting. I believe that it is worth coming here, because this valuable experience is necessary for your personal and professional growth.
