EM Normandie Business School’s Master in Management (Programme Grande École) is a triple-accredited French MiM, ranked 85th in the Financial Times Masters in Management, with fully English-taught tracks and up to 18 months of internships built into the degree.¹ ²

Overview

EM Normandie is one of France’s recognised grandes écoles de management, holding the triple-crown accreditation — EQUIS, AMBA and AACSB — and membership of the Conférence des Grandes Écoles.¹ Its Master in Management (Programme Grande École) is the school’s flagship pre-experience master, delivered across campuses in Caen, Le Havre and Paris (France), Dublin (Ireland) and Oxford (UK), and it requires no specific prior work experience.¹

Curriculum & Structure

The programme runs over two or three years and offers six specialisation tracks.¹ A defining feature is its emphasis on professional experience: students can complete up to 18 months of internships, and a work-study option (three weeks in a company to one week in class) is available.¹ The multi-campus structure — including fully English-taught delivery at Paris and Oxford, and English-and-French options at Le Havre — lets students shape an international path through the degree.¹

Application & Deadlines

Entry is a three-year bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) via application.¹ The GMAT is not required. For the English-taught track, non-native speakers need IELTS 6, TOEFL iBT 83, TOEIC 790 or Duolingo 115; the French-taught track asks for B2-level French.¹ Intake sessions run throughout the year subject to availability rather than on fixed rounds, so international candidates who need a visa should apply early and confirm the current windows on the school’s admissions page.

Tuition & Funding

Tuition is €13,750 per year for 2026/27 — €27,500 across the standard two-year (M1 + M2) track — plus a €50 application fee.¹ That sits in the mid-range for a French grande-école MiM; weigh it against EM Normandie’s triple-crown standing, its FT ranking, and the up-to-18-months of internship experience the programme is built around.
