Research meeting business concerns

In the field of Management, the link with businesses is essential. A dissertation written in this field always includes, beyond the works’ theoretical implications, a presentation of the practical implications in terms of management for businesses or organizations. The School’s corporate relations and network of alumni are key assets to help develop a Research that will lead to concrete solutions applicable to the needs of companies.  

Field-based work allows Researchers to compare their methods with business practices and enables them to further develop their courses in executive programs where participants expect in-depth thinking and a specific knowledge of tangible and operational tools.
