English-taught degrees at French Grandes Ecoles

While there is still almost no provision of Bachelor’s degrees in English at French public universities, the elite Grandes Ecoles are expanding their range of suitable international degrees at an increasing rate. Most of these degrees are in the strategically important fields of business, management and/or engineering. Many of them include the opportunity to study in more than one country.

We have already been working with Sciences Po in the field of the social sciences for the last three years. All of their degrees include a compulsory final year abroad at some of the best universities in the world. Now, we are finding similar opportunities for students of business and management.

Sciences Po FAQs: "What level of French do we need to enter as an international student? Are all the courses in English?"

EDHEC Business School has developed an exciting BBA in Global Business that consists of one year in Lille or Nice, one year at UCLA on their extension programme (followed by a 6-month internship in the USA) and one year at Nanyang Business School in Singapore (again, followed by a 6-month internship in Asia). Such multiple location degrees are becoming increasingly popular for internationally motivated students and we expect many more universities will develop such degree programmes in the near future.

Perhaps the most exciting opportunity for British students to study in France is at Ecole Polytechnique in Paris (Times Higher Education ranked 4^th Best Small University in the world). Their English-taught BSc programme launched this September and admissions have just opened for 2018. We will visit their campus in the very near future and will provide full information on our websites soon.
