The French Minister of Higher Education and Research has authorized PSB Paris School of Business to issue an approved bachelor’s degree (Bac+3 - level II) for a 5-year period beginning on 1st September 2017.

This academic recognition, which is the highest possible for a Baccalaureate +3 degree, particularly highlights:

  • an original international development model;
  • the great international diversity of the students;
  • the model of professionalization (significant job insertion rates following the degree program);
  • the pedagogical innovation efforts grounded particularly on learning  soft skills, the value of cross-disciplinary processes and extra-curricular learning;
  • the entrepreneurial opportunities with the incubator.

Founded in 1999, this Bachelor’s program in General and International Management lasts 3 years, is initially taught in English, and is mainly aimed at international students of 51 different nationalities on a campus that hosts students from 103 different countries. 

As of the beginning of the 2017 academic year, this Bachelor’s program will offer a track in French with a semester abroad during the 2nd year and 7 majors as of the 3rd year including:

and 3 in French under the cooperative education system

  • Marketing and communication,

“This recognition marks an important milestone in PSB’s development strategy,” said Armand Derhy, Dean of PSB Paris School of Business. “Following the four-year renewal of the Master’s degree accreditation for the Master in Management in 2015, the dual international AMBA accreditation of the Master in Management and the MBA in October 2014, as well as AACSB eligibility, PSB Paris School of Business continues to strengthen its commitment to academic excellence, strong career prospects, and national and international recognition. All PSB programs are taught in English, from the Bachelor’s degree to the DBA, including the MBA, MSc programs, and the Master in Management.”
