Introduction

This programme focuses on innovation management and business development strategy for French and international firms. This is a multi-disciplinary programme that prepares well-rounded graduates capable of working transversally on strategy issues for international companies.

In line with international best practices, research at TSM begins in the second year of the Master, with a dedicated research programme. This intensive programme creatively combines the best of theory, practice and reality-based education: graduates pursue careers in leading universities and business schools, policy-oriented institutions and private firms. We deliberately keep the doctoral programme small to allow you to work closely with your supervisor and develop interaction with all faculty members.

Students who successfully complete the first year of the programme are awarded a Master of Science and may choose to end their formal training. The goal of this one-year programme is to provide students with the quantitative, analytical and theoretical tools for a successful academic or industry-oriented career.

Courses are taught in English only.
