sK Knowledge maKes the difference

SKEMA's ambition is to be a global business school which, through its research and teaching programmes, trains and educates the talented individuals that 21st century businesses require. With SKEMA, we have created the necessary material and human resources to deliver an educational programme that perfectly reflects the global economic environment. Our goal is to train mobile, adaptable, talented managers who are able to deliver sustainable performance, make a valuable contribution to social, societal and economic debates and challenges, network, work remotely and push the boundaries of knowledge and innovation - managers who are comfortable with, and show respect for, multicultural and social diversity.

Our multi-site, international structure, with sites in Asia, Europe and America, means that we can remain perfectly in tune with our economic environment and the world of international higher education. Our campuses are more than simple satellite training centres. They are located within large, expanding research parks, where cooperation and partnership come together to create the innovations and technologies of the future. Our teaching staff and students enjoy a relationship based on mutual enrichment, with both classroom-based and in-company activities and strong, permanent connections between the different sites, which offer complementary training programmes. We have a dual mission: Educating multicultural leaders prepared for a world with shifting centres of gravity, where cultures mix and diversify. We live in a global economy where the economic and political centres of gravity have shifted. We must now take account of the total reorganisation of the world economy which is being played out before our eyes. The future of education lies in breaking down barriers and mixing between cultures. Future leaders must be able to network; they must be mobile and able to work with many different cultures. They must know how to negotiate with each nationality on his or her home territory, adapting to each new experience and learning to adapt to the next. We will continue to develop our international exchanges with partner universities, but we also wish to develop our own campuses across the globe wherever tomorrow’s economy is on the march; this is because nothing can replace the direct experience of an internship in another country. We think that this is the best possible way to learn how to be truly international. SKEMA students have access to six campuses on three continents. The latest campus to be opened is the American campus in Raleigh, North Carolina. We decided that we wanted the school itself to be international in nature. As a result, 35% of the students at the campuses in France come from abroad. We provide our students with the skills they need to cope with a complex, global environment, including a perfect command of English and respect for cultural diversity.

Educating tomorrow’s decision makers through a flexible system offering real choice to learners. → Producing ethical decision makers who are aware of their responsibilities and whose actions make a difference. Being part of SKEMA does not mean only learning the basics of good management. It also means learning about corporate social responsibility and sustainable development. → Decision makers in line with new management practices who have learned through new pedagogical practices. SKEMA also means expertise for the future: innovative project management, information management, knowledge management and the management of client relations, management in a globalised system, mergers and acquisitions, risk management... Another of our basic tenets is that graduates should have dual skills. This has always been a strong feature of the founding schools of SKEMA. We wish to reinforce it to make sure that our graduates arrive on the job market with the best possible prospects for their chosen career. Creating a new business school means creating a new model of teaching and learning. Core to this is the use of multimedia technologies and the Internet to improve the quality of courses and facilitate access to resources and services. It also means working in collaboration, often at a distance, enabling students to develop skills that will help them to continue learning long after their schooldays are over. → Students define their own learning path and become masters of their own education. Independence and freedom are SKEMA’s watchwords. We want to transform the system, where students learn a pre-configured course syllabus, to an environment where each student chooses his or her own learning path. But students are not left to sink or swim. They are guided to independence by a group of specialists who include managers, career advisors, professors, and alumni.

The programmes at SKEMA Business School are aimed at students who want to be part of a globalised training community that is perfectly suited to the challenges of the modern environment. As graduates of the school, they will go on to work towards a collective goal with a common vision: to create the right conditions for a sustainable knowledge-based economy. As you have seen, your training, success and development in a world of opportunities lies at the very core of the SKEMA development strategy. I give you my personal commitment, on behalf of all the staff at our campuses, to helping you to achieve this goal.

our ViSion

A Project Founded on the Knowledge Economy and Sustainable Performance

a few figures → 6100 students → 160 permanent professors → 56 million-euro budget → 20 000 graduates throughout the world → 268 publications, 70 CNRS stars → Over 65 student societies

In the 21st century, knowledge and information management have become a key factor for ensuring that a business remains competitive. To increase their competitiveness, companies need to manage human capital, innovation and information effectively. They also need to manage their intangible assets effectively, as these are much more costly than any tangible asset (Cohen, 2009). And of course, they need to assess the impact on their environment. The knowledge economy represents a major transformation of the industrial economy. The knowledge economy is the term used to describe the new phase of economic history that began in the late 1990s. In the knowledge economy, the creation and use of knowledge of all forms lies at the heart of value creation. This change is so significant that, in 2000, the European Union pledged to make Europe "the most competitive and dynamic knowledge economy, capable of sustainable economic growth with more and better jobs and greater social cohesion". All companies are now stakeholders in the knowledge economy. The knowledge economy extends beyond the information technology and high-tech sectors. For example, a clothing company that employs designers to create its

Our Vision

clothing ranges and that subcontracts production to countries where labour costs are lower, using complex logistics systems, is part of the knowledge economy. Today, almost every company in every sector operates in globalised markets that feature new forms of competition. These companies must innovate continually and convert their knowledge into a competitive advantage by building services around their products. They must focus on and develop their human capital, which is their greatest insurance policy against the unknown.

companies and create new jobs and wealth for countries.

The characteristics of the knowledge economy. Information technologies are used in almost every type of business operation, management method and manual work, both individual and collective. As well as significantly improving productivity, these technologies have also provided a platform for the global dissemination of knowledge. Other characteristics that have resulted from the interaction between the knowledge economy and information technologies are:

→ The 2009 crisis alerted the international community to the limitations of traditional economic models. As a result, business schools are now faced with a brand new set of challenges to meet. Now, the key objective of these schools is to produce responsible managers who are able to deliver sustainable performance.

→ Increased globalisation of the economy, which has enabled the widespread distribution of property, knowledge and capital and led to unprecedented growth. This globalisation has also created new forms of competition between companies in different countries and has created new, substantial risks that are capable of destabilising markets. → A requirement for companies and countries to innovate continually to remain competitive in sectors where new competitors are appearing, and to invent new activities that can create value for

→ The growing need for organisations to manage intangible, knowledge-based assets (technological capital, brand capital, customer capital, human capital, etc.), with aspects such as branding, service provision and information adding value to companies' offers to their customers. Intangible assets are also becoming a major factor in a company's value - both its financial value and its ability to remain competitive over the long term.

An Innovative Educational Model with Strong Values An Innovative Educational Model with Strong Values SKEMA opens a new chapter in the history of business schools by focusing its educational programme on the knowledge economy.

The objective To encourage the emergence of leaders and managers who are able to understand their environment and deliver sustainable performance. To produce ethical decision-makers who are conscious of their responsibilities and who take a "humanistic" approach, who are trained to deal with the challenges of corporate social responsibility and who are focused on sustainable performance. To produce decision-makers who can apply the latest managerial practices and who are prepared to meet future challenges: capacity to manage innovative projects, encourage innovation, manage information and knowledge, manage intangible assets, lead in cross-cultural environments, manage virtual teams, demonstrate a critical, analytical mind, etc.

A Multi-Campus, International Structure: A Laboratory for Businesses and Students We live in a global economy. The future of education lies in breaking down barriers and engaging with other cultures. Future decision-makers will need to be mobile managers who network and engage with different cultures and are able to master culture-specific practices with the same skill as a native. While SKEMA plans to continue its programme of international exchanges, it has developed a new, more direct policy of opening campuses abroad, where the economy of tomorrow will be created. Our multi-site, international structure, with sites in Asia, Europe and America, means that we can remain perfectly in tune with our economic environment and the world of international higher education. Our campuses are more than simple satellite training centres. They are located within large, expanding research parks, where cooperation and partnership come together to create the innovations and technologies of the future. Our teaching staff and students enjoy a relationship based on mutual enrichment, with both classroom-based and in-

company activities and strong, permanent connections between the different sites, which offer complementary training programmes. With this new arrangement, SKEMA's ambition is to use new educational technologies and do away with traditional training methods, remaining at the cutting edge of the new business model called for by leading experts in our sector (P. Lorange, G. Hawawini and E. Cornuel). Our internal management system uses the full range of international management tools. It includes several governing bodies with representatives from companies who are well-respected for their competitiveness, their commitment to responsibility and the effectiveness of their management practices. The culture of SKEMA Business School is designed for students and participants who want to be part of a globalised training community that is perfectly suited to the challenges of the modern environment. As graduates of the school, they will go on to work towards a collective goal with a common vision: to

create the right conditions for a sustainable knowledge economy. “As many companies internationalize and/or face global competition, students and employers demand a business education with a solid international dimension…(…) The network model which is the most developed approach to globalize a business school, seeks to create a multiple-site institution with fullfledged campuses located in different regions around the world-ideally one campus in each of the main economic regions of the world (i.e. the Americas, Asia and Europe). The challenge here is to keep the campuses tightly connected to one another and avoid turning the structure into a multi local school with quasi autonomous sites”. G. Hawawini former dean of INSEAD, Henry Grunfeld Chaired Professor of Investment Banking The Journal of Management Development (2005).

at home worldwide SKEMA Business School now operates from six different sites: in France (Lille, Paris La Villette, Paris La Défense and Sophia Antipolis), China (Suzhou), Morocco (Casablanca) and the USA (Raleigh, NC), where the first students will arrive in January 011. The campuses are located in well-known science parks or business centres and offer students exceptional opportunities and career prospects. SKEMA's foreign campuses all have the same goal: to combine international academic and professional experience. At SKEMA, the genuine international experience that students receive involves more than just the creation of a local school. Other international campuses, based on the same criteria, will be opened over the next few years.

Sophia Antipolis, at the heart of the French Riviera: the home of SKEMA Bachelors The French Riviera is without doubt one of the most attractive areas in France for tourism. It has lovely weather and beautiful varied landscapes, not to mention 120 km of Mediterranean coast. It is no secret that the French Riviera attracts thousands of tourists every summer. 3900 events are held here every year – it’s all part of the Côte d’Azur. The rolling countryside of the “Alpes-Maritimes” is an invitation for all outdoor activities from trekking and skiing in the mountains to swimming and sailing in the beautiful Mediterranean Sea. In economic terms, the region is one of the most dynamic in Europe. With over one million inhabitants, the French Riviera has become a strategic location for companies in sectors as varied as high technology, tourism, luxury or international finance. The campus lies at the heart of Europe’s best known science park whose success is directly linked to its quality of life and exceptional environment. The area offers not only its natural beauty, but also a high level of cultural and social life enriched by the diversity of its population. Sophia Antipolis is home to several higher education institutes and university departments which have created a vibrant student community of over 5,000. SKEMA’s immediate environment also includes over 1,300 companies in sectors such as information and communications technology or biotechnology. Here, 21st century companies have become part of a knowledge community and the SKEMA 30-hectare state-of–the-art campus fits harmoniously with this environment.

Lille, the hub of Europe The Nord-Pas de Calais region is the youngest and most highly populated region of France. Lille is the biggest and the most thriving student city outside Paris. Northern France offers a dynamic business environment and hosts the largest number of headquarters of leading companies after Paris. The Nord-Pas de Calais is also the biggest centre for the mail-order industry in Europe; the region attracts the most foreign investment, is the

second biggest area for insurance companies, and the third biggest financial market in France. It has a highly developed textile industry and is the third most important in France for exports and the automotive industry. Lille is the cradle of mass retailing and hosts many world famous companies. This 20,000-square-metre modern, functional campus is located in the heart of the city’s business centre, a stone‘s throw from the old town and Lille’s Grand Place. It is conveniently situated between two TGV stations with Paris only an hour away, Brussels 38 minutes and London 1 hour 20.

Suzhou, China

Paris, La Villette and La Défense

Casablanca, Morocco

The City of Lights continues to be one of the most stimulating cities in the world as a centre of cultural and economic activity. At the heart of French business, intellectual and cultural life, Paris hosts millions of visitors year-round who come to marvel at the wealth of history, art and entertainment the city has to offer. Competitive industries, business innovations, high-level education, and tourism have turned Paris into the favourite city of business professionals and young graduates. For careeroriented young people, Paris is the place to be and SKEMA’s Paris campuses give students the chance to work and learn in a city of unlimited opportunities.

The city is situated on the Atlantic coast about 90 kilometres south of Rabat, the country’s administrative capital. While Rabat is Morocco’s largest city, Casablanca has rapidly become the kingdom’s economic capital, spearheading the development of the whole country. The city and its outlying area now spreads over 873 square kilometres with a 50 kilometre coastline. Casablanca has become a true metropolis apt to take up the challenge of globalisation and the worldwide competition this implies.

Before both campuses are incorporated in one site, SKEMA students can choose between the two Paris campuses. → La Villette Campus The campus occupies two floors in the Tour La Villette. 2,045 square metres equiped with the latest information and communication technologies. The La Villette campus is ideally situated with fast access to central Paris and main motorways. Close by, the Parc de La Villette and the Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie make this a high potential, dynamic environment chosen by many companies. → La Défense Campus The campus is located in the Pôle Léonard de Vinci in the heart of La Défense. This modern area is only a 10-minute metro ride from the Champs-Elysées, or 20 minutes from the Eiffel Tower. La Défense is home to a population of 20,000, with 1,500 companies (15 of which are among the world top 50) employing 150,000 people. Many companies especially banks and insurance companies have left their former neighbourhoods to set up here.

Suzhou has been called the Venice of the East because of its many canals, beautiful natural environment and traditional gardens. However, this ancient city is one of the most advanced centres of technology across the globe; it is home to 118 of the top 500 companies in the world. Suzhou is just one hour from Shanghai, China’s second largest centre of industry and top destination for foreign investment. This makes it an ideal recruitment centre for graduates seeking an international career.

SKEMA is part of the brand new Mundiapolis Campus run by the SEGEPEC group which manages several private institutes of higher education, each of which is specialised in a particular domain (Finance, Management, Company Law, Human Resources, Languages, Computer Science and Automatics and Electronics.) The Mundiapolis Campus comprises 1,300 students.

Raleigh, (North Carolina, USA) The SKEMA campus occupies about 2500m2 within the Centennial Campus at North Carolina State University. Raleigh is close to the largest technology research park in the United States (Research Triangle Park) and hosts a wide range of innovative companies and research laboratories. SKEMA students will have the opportunity to mix with American students and international students from around the world, and to get involved with these local businesses. In January 2011, the first students from one specialised master, Bachelor and Grande Ecole programmes who have chosen the "Doing Business in North America" specialisation will arrive at the campus. In September 2011, the number of places available will be expanded, to include other specialisations. The students will be able to use all the services provided by NC State University: a vast multimedia resource centre, extensive sports facilities, catering, accommodation, healthcare system...

Students are our ambition. SKEMA has set up a system that measures students’ expectations of, and satisfaction with, the teaching. Students are required to give formal feedback on every year on every course. There are monthly meetings with student delegates. This feedback is measured, recorded and acted upon so that the school improves constantly. There are also evaluations to assess students’ acquisition of competencies.

→ The Grande Ecole diploma of SKEMA’s founder schools (CERAM Business School and Lille School of Management) is recognised by the French State and endorsed as “Master”. The Conference des Grandes Ecoles (CGE) is the accrediting body for SKEMA and the Specialised Masters’ programmes as well as certain Masters of Science (MSc). → Both SKEMA founder institutions are EQUIS (European Quality Improvement System) accredited by EFMD (European Foundation for Management Development). These accreditations bear witness to the high quality of faculty and research at SKEMA as well as the school’s international dimension and relationship with the business community. → SKEMA is accredited by the Global Accreditation Center for Project Management of the Project Management Institute (PMI GAC PM - USA) and by the Association for Project Management (APM – UK). These accreditations have been awarded in recognition of the school’s track record in training for Project Management. SKEMA is the first non-American business school to have received international accreditation from the GAC PM in 2005, and it is the only business school outside the US to be accredited by both the above institutions.

> By companies Companies are SKEMA’s end-clients. More than 6000 companies are partners of SKEMA. They are involved in all areas: strategy, research, curriculum design, teaching, internships, careers… These close ties guarantee the relevance of our programs and make sure our graduates have the appropriate training that makes them so successful on the job market. The high rate of employability among SKEMA graduates is recognition of the quality of our programmes, as seen by the job market.

The Bachelor degree is the first level of higher education throughout the world. In the US and many other countries, the Bachelor covers four years after high school. The Bachelor is a standard recognised by companies recruiting in an international environment. Depending on the specialisation, this diploma leads to direct entry onto the job market, or to higher levels of education such as Master of Science or Master 2, which usually last for a further 12 or 18 months.

The academic Dimension Do it your own way!

A flexible learning programme completely in English. The SKEMA Bachelors programme is a balanced combination of the strongest points of the French and American education systems. It encompasses flexibility and a personalised and interactive approach, and encourages intuition and creativity. It also values capacities for abstract thinking, formalised structure and written and oral communication. The resulting pedagogical principles have proven their efficiency: → Continuous assessment of learning → Emphasis on personal research → Interactive classes → Personal involvement of students → Group work → Multimedia learning resources (video, e-learning, web) A semester-based system One of the strong points of SKEMA Bachelors is its organisation into semesters. Students choose different courses each semester (SeptemberJanuary, January- April, and optionally, mid-May to end June) according to a “basic programme” which specifies the type and number of courses to be validated over 4 years in order to graduate. Students then decide how many and, to a large extent, what type of courses they want to take each semester. On average, students validate between 5 and 6 courses per semester (not counting “catch up” courses in English and Maths). Student athletes or those wishing to undertake a personal or professional project while studying usually take between 1 and 4 courses per semester.

The Add & Drop system This is an American inspired system which enables students to modify their choice of courses, or even their specialisation during a “trial period” of two or three weeks after the beginning of each semester. Specialised professors who are there to listen At SKEMA Bachelors, the professors are all experts or professionals in their chosen area. They have international backgrounds and often speak several languages amongst which are English and French. They can thus converse with students from all over the world, and are easily accessible. They are always ready to listen to students: here, the professorstudent relationship is never anonymous, but one of mutual exchange.

A bonus for academic excellence At SKEMA Bachelors we reward academic excellence. We encourage our students to do their best and to work efficiently and consistently. We believe in the virtues of emulation, not to be confused with unbridled competition - success does not mean overriding others, but pushing oneself further. The top students admitted to the programme, and the best students each semester, are eligible for a merit award which can amount to 25% of tuition fees.

Programmes include a wide range of disciplines The basic programmes of the various Bachelors specialisations all include general education courses in Written and Oral Communication (in English), Languages, History of Civilisation, Political Science, Science for nonspecialists, and Sports. These courses are given in parallel with the Core Courses for each subject and Major courses (specialised subjects). Options throughout the course of study The basic Bachelors programmes include optional courses in each of the three categories: General Education, Core Courses or Major Courses. These optional courses are followed both at SKEMA Bachelors and at partner universities and are chosen according to students’ preferences.

the Personal dimension Be the best you can be

Teaching at SKEMA Bachelors is based on a flexible and interactive system of learning which develops skills and encourages student independence. All the actors involved (professors, tutors, lecturers, support services) are available to accompany students throughout their course of study in their choices and personal development. A system of permanent personal tutoring means that students are given guidance as soon as they arrive. The pedagogical approach values pragmatism over purely academic knowledge: first observe and experiment, then work out the theory behind the facts. “Made in SKEMA” tutoring: how it helps A plethora of associations, societies and clubs Taking part in a student association means self-fulfilment and learning. This is why we encourage students to take on responsibilities in the student

associations of SKEMA Business School. Every year, a team of students is responsible for the entire organisation of the annual school Gala; others devote themselves to audio-visual techniques, the theatre or running “Coffee Break” (the SKEMA Bachelors coffee bar). Others get involved in the Student Union where they organise events like skiing weekends or theme days. The campus is rich in associations - in Sophia for example, there are over 35 - in a diversity of domains, from culture and sports to humanitarian aid and professional interests. These are organised into 4 main areas: The Company → AMD Performance: an association whose objective is to find “jobs” for students. Humanitarian and sustainable development → Club Jason: An association to promote awareness of the environment. Students discover the Mediterranean environment and create communication supports to raise awareness among the public by giving them scientific information about their local area. Student life → BDE: Le Bureau des Etudiants (Student Union) organises extracurricular life in the school → Le Coffee Break: The “common room” where SKEMA Bachelors students hang out. They go there for the friendly atmosphere and the dynamism and efficiency of the

members. → Leadership: This association organises the SKEMA Bachelor Gala and prepares the Yearbook. Art → SKEMA News: the school reporters who publish the monthly SKEMA News Engineering → SKEMA Inventors: The school’s inventors, made up of engineering students Sport → Bachelors Riders: The extreme sports club → La Flight Academy: for those with a taste for aviation! The values of sport and personal development At SKEMA Bachelors, sport is an integral part of the education programme and contributes to students’ personal development. Dynamism, endurance, courage, selfcontrol, managing emotions and stress, the sense of responsibility and abiity to workin a team etc. These are just some of the personal qualities which business expects of its future executives, and all of these can be expressed and developed through sporting activities. Located between the sea and the mountains the Côte d’Azur,is the ideal spot not only for outdoor sports (sailing, winter sports, rock climbing, rugby, football etc) but also for indoor sports such as handball, swimming, fitness, hip hop etc.

The Programme for athlete Students STuDenTS enrolleD in the bachelors programmes of SKEMA Business School can benefit from special timetable arrangements which enable them to succeed in both sides of their life: they can earn a high level degree which is internationally recognised by companies while still continuing their sports career. This is made possible by the flexibility of our programmes, especially the system of credited courses for which we have made special arrangements such as less frequent attendance, deferred exams, specialised tutors familiar with the world of high level sports and able to integrate the specific needs of these students into their teaching plan with free summer sessions etc. There are specific seminars reserved for students with the status of student athletes. These deal with such matters as time and career management, communication techniques, management of infrastructure and/or sporting events. Our philosophy places sport at the centre of your course: we are able to offer solutions to enable you to achieve all your objectives. A large number of high level sportsmen have already chosen SKEMA (Christophe Kalfayan, Romain Barnier, Camille Muffat, Clément Lefert, Quentin Signori, Nancy Charden, to name but a few). Their success shows that it is possible to combine further study with a successful sporting career.

Benefit from special arrangements and made-to-measure supervision. Special arrangements take account of the constraints related to sports and integrate them into the learning process throughout the programme of study. → Because the programme is organised on a credit system, the length of the course is totally flexible. → A personal timetable is worked out taking account of training and competitions → Specially arranged exam dates in case of conflict with competitions → Dispensation from course attendance in case of conflict with sports obligations → E-learning to enable certain courses to be followed by distance learning → A convention in partnership with the Region to help sportsmen to combine sports with a career. Financial facilities → SKEMA Bachelors students who are SHN may benefit from a student grant of up to 1800 euros per year. → If training sessions make it impossible to attend the full programme, summer sessions are free of charge. Unique personalised supervision → Tutoring: the philosophy of tutoring is to facilitate the student’s integration, encourage autonomy and a responsible attitude towards work while providing guidance and support throughout the course of study. Meetings with your personal tutor are programmed regularly and provide a reference point and support for high level sports students. → The personal academic tutor ensures that students are followed up in terms of their learning and course choices as well as given support and guidance as to how to manage their time. → The sports tutor is in charge of organising the sports side of the student’s life. → Throughout the year, there are seminars dealing specifically with the problems faced by sportsmen: (image management, career management, communication etc.)

international Business The internationalisation of the world’s economies is the source of new opportunities but also of new threats for companies and organisations. One answer to these challenges is to gain knowledge of the international business environment, master good practices and understand marketing and methods of international management. Far from being limited to international business practice, this specialisation prepares students to become decision makers in international and multicultural environments. The courses concentrate on understanding the economic, social and cultural dimensions of global business, and make students aware of how to work out truly international strategies for companies. This specialisation is very demanding and requires students to master at least three languages. International mobility of new graduates is encouraged.

management and entrepreneurship Management comprises two domains: decision-making and setting up an efficient organisation so that teams can reach their objectives. The specialised courses prepare future managers to deal with the quantitative and qualitative aspects of company life. The managers’ task is an almost scientific one when it comes to defining objectives in figures, improving performance, coordinating tasks or managing budgets. Qualitative aspects concern human relationships within teams and these courses give students an in depth approach to the issues of recruitment, training and remuneration of collaborators.

Bachelors in Finance are mostly general in nature, because students firstly have to master a solid basis in the subject before going any further. This they can do by following for example a Master in structured finance, real estate finance, capital risk, international finance etc. The basic and advanced courses deal with the two main branches of finance: market finance and corporate finance. Students at American universities are particularly fortunate: they benefit from high quality teaching by professionals and academics, and they can access internships in famous American investment banks such as Citibank, Morgan Stanley, Chase Manhattan… Students in Finance are strongly advised to participate in investment clubs at their university: they will thus become familiar with dealing with financial information, real or virtual portfolio management and knowledge of financial institutions.

environmental Science This course deals with the interaction of human beings and their environment, developing solutions to challenges which emerge from the relationship. Environmental Science is far more multi-disciplinary than Biology, Chemistry and Mathematics and includes ecology, meteorology and oceanography. These are complemented by a group of applied courses devoted to specific techniques applied to the environment – geo-referential information systems, impact studies and natural risk analysis.

International

partner track

After courses in theory, students go on to practice what they have learned by applying it to concrete cases and laboratory experiments. Students are able to offer their expertise to a large number of public and private sector organisations working on local or international projects. There are two distinct branches to the diploma: fundamental sciences or applied sciences. Students who opt for fundamental sciences take a higher level of specialisation in biology, physics or another option such as geology, mathematics etc. They are likely to be more inclined towards employment related to research, modelling or studies where the human factor is central to environmental processes. Students who opt for applied sciences will receive further specialisation in an area of applied environmental science such as waste management, renewable energy, natural resources, planning, etc. This can lead to employment in environmental consultancy, audit and the sustainable development departments of companies or national and international organisations. The transfer system means that students may choose any of these options.

marine Biology This specialisation trains biologists specialised in the marine environment: development biology, physiology, cell biology of marine creatures. It offers complete training in pure biology with specific courses in marine biology.

International

partner track

From the beginning of the course, students take classes in oceanography, marine biology and ecology. These subjects are developed further in courses abroad where they apply their knowledge, studying in the field through courses on marine mammals, fish and algae. This specialisation opens the way for students to become researchers or to find employment in the area of applied biology. Research has wide fields of application and may be directed towards particular species such as seahorses or whales, or a category of species such as zooplankton or mammals etc. These in turn may be studied at cellular level (genetics etc.), at the level of organs (physiology), or of the creature as a whole (adaptability, development etc.). Other areas of research deal with whole populations (reproduction, migration) or even ecosystems (the dynamics of coral reefs) or behaviour (ethology). Another possibility for employment lies in the area of aquaculture, tracking the growth and nutrition of different species. Further employment possibilities after this training can be found in marine parks or museum management and in the fishing industry, oil companies or marine energy production companies.

oceanography This specialisation is aimed at students who want a career in research in oceanography or oceanology, the study of the marine environment in general or in applied positions such as management of coastal areas, climate change or conservation of biodiversity in the marine environment. An initial training in various disciplines (maths, biology, physics, chemistry) is completed with specialised courses in oceanography etc. for the first two years.

International

partner track

The following options for specialisation are available in our partner universities: physics (sea currents, meteorology) marine chemistry (pollution) marine geology (study of the ocean floor, oil reserves) or the biology of organisms. Students then complete their studies with a PhD which will enable them to do research on themes such as the impact of currents on plankton or oceanicatmospheric interactions and the impacts of climate change. Some students might prefer to go on to do a more applied Master such as Coastal Area Management, anti-pollution measures or the protection of marine ecosystems. SKEMA Bachelors’ partners have research teams which are recognised worldwide.

Become a Pilot

Optional

If you combine a diploma in Aeronautical Science, Aviation Meteorology, or Aviation Management with the flight option, you will be able to gain dual skills. There are two options: the flight option (International partners course) and the Air Transport Pilot Licence option (exchange). In this way, SKEMA Bachelors will help you to get the theoretical and practical qualifications to become an airline pilot.

→ Flight Option (dual degree) The Flight Option is a modular course which enables you to obtain the different licences needed to reach the level of airline pilot. First of all, the PPL (Private Pilot Licence), then the CPL (Commercial Pilot Licence), the IR (Instrument Rating), and finally the MEP (Multi Engine Propulsion). Each of these qualifications is obtained after theoretical and practical exams. The student passes the PPL during the first two years at SKEMA Bachelors with our partner Cannes Aviation; the other qualifications are delivered by our partner universities (Australia or United States). In this way the student obtains a licence for American or Australian aircraft. If he/she wishes to work in Europe, it is necessary to convert these licences.

→ The ATPI option in partnership with Cannes Aviation (exchange) The ATPI option is only for the exchange programme and proposes an integrated course of study to become an airline pilot. The course is authorised by the DGAC and is held in partnership with Cannes Aviation. Cannes Aviation is the only F.T.O. (Flight Training Organisation) in the Côte d’Azur region. It has 15 years’ experience in aeronautical training and offers a modern fleet of training aircraft with 4 DA40 VFR, 2 DA40 EFIS Garmin 1000 and 2 DA42 EFIS Garmin 1000. A top quality “glass cockpit” simulator (FNPT2) completes this equipment which offers a coherent and progressive training course. The Cannes-Mandelieu aerodrome is the second biggest in France after Le Bourget. It offers many opportunities because of the many airlines which work there. With partner organisations such as IFAERO, you will be able to take a qualification on Citation Jet while you finish your Bachelor. Finally, the region Provence Alpes Côte d’Azur is a highly stimulating area for such a course, between the sea and the mountains and near airports such as Nice, Marseille, Montpellier, Toulon, Calvi and Bastia. For those who only want to obtain an airline pilot’s license, SKEMA Bachelors offers the possibility of opting for the ATPI alone. This two-year course enables you to validate the theoretical and practical parts of the qualification (ATPL). The course is in English and made up of the following modules: aviation law, procedures of air control, electricity, motorisation, emergency equipment, flight preparation and follow up, meteorology, general navigation, radio navigation, operational procedures, flight mechanics as well as other courses such as English, maths and flying hours (210 in all).

→ Glider option

Our partnership with the Fayence Air Club enables students to discover the purest and simplest expression of flight. This course is open to pilots and non-pilots alike. For pilots, it provides a way of perfecting their piloting skills, and for non-pilots, it is a way to experience the demands and discipline of flying. Gliding is more and more appreciated by airlines and is an important part of basic training. For those who do not wish to become pilots, it is an opportunity to get an idea of what it is like to be a pilot for a reasonable price. It offers insight into the pilot’s job and is thus a good preparation for employment in airline management. It is also a way to discover a sensational sporting activity. The programme set up by the Fayence Air Club opens the possibility of becoming a pilot instructor at the end of the academic course

We have developed an attractive network of English-speaking partnerships which we continue to expand. Thus, as well as our traditional partners in the United States and Canada, our agreements with Australia now open opportunities for partnerships in Asia. Great Britain is also a major axis of development for our programmes. Another criterion in our choice of partners is their reputation in one or several of our branches of training. Each university has particular areas of competence and we limit our choice of partners to those giving the best chance of success for our students while corresponding to our own criteria of quality. Finally, making no concessions on the quality of study, we offer a network adapted to all levels of finance by proposing years of study at tariffs identical or lower than our own.
