Global BBA

Year One: Mastering the Essentials

Rentrée Paris ABM 2025

From your very first year, you get straight to the heart of business.

You’ll dive into the fundamentals of management, marketing, finance, law, and CSR — all taught 100% in English — giving you a clear, practical vision of how companies work in France and around the world.

Your choice:

  •  A summer school to open up to the world
    At the end of Year 1, you have the opportunity to take part in a short but impactful international experience. Head abroad for a summer school at one of our prestigious partner universities, such as LSE – London School of Economics (UK), Stanford University (USA), or UC Berkeley (USA), among others.

The goal: to offer you a first academic and cultural immersion abroad, helping you gain a deeper understanding of the world.

  •  A first hands-on experience
    Prefer to discover the business world right from Year 1? That’s possible too.
    At the end of the year, you can choose to undertake a professional experience abroad.

The goal: to confront real-world challenges, observe, understand, and start finding your place within a professional environment.

Year Two: Deepen your knowledge, broaden your horizons

Rentrée Paris ABM 2025

After a year of discovery, it’s time to go further.

You’ll strengthen your foundations and dive deeper into the core areas of business.

Challenging courses — always 100% in English — will boost your skills and give you greater confidence in an international environment.

  •  A semester on an Audencia international campus
    Time to head abroad!
    Spend a semester studying at one of Audencia’s international campuses. You’ll experience full academic immersion, with close support to guide you at every step. Learn alongside students from around the world, discover a new culture, and grow your intercultural agility.
     

  • A rewarding professional experience
    In your second year, you’ll gain more autonomy and impact. You’ll complete a professional experience — in France or abroad — within a company. It’s your chance to put theory into practice, test your ideas, and experience the realities of the business world firsthand.

Year Three: Sharpen your profile, broaden your perspectives

Rentrée Paris ABM 2024

In your third year, you’ll deepen your expertise and take a step back to gain a wider vision.
You’ll start with a semester of courses at Audencia, strengthening your knowledge in key areas of management — taught in English and always connected to today’s business challenges.

Choose your focus: two electives addressing major global transformations:

  • Societal, social, and environmental transition

  • Data and artificial intelligence transition

A semester at a partner university abroad
Next, you’ll head off for a semester at one of our partner universities, carefully selected among the world’s top institutions. You’ll immerse yourself in a new academic environment, discover different teaching methods, explore new disciplines, and experience an unparalleled wealth of culture.

Year Four: Specialize and shape your future

ZAL City Nantes 2024

The final stretch before graduation.
In your fourth year, you’ll consolidate everything you’ve learned, choose your specialization, and actively prepare for the next step of your journey — in France or abroad.

Two pathways to prepare for life after the BBA:

  • Specialization + professional experience
    Start with core courses to strengthen your knowledge in strategy, leadership, and management. Then choose your specialization — Finance or Marketing. You’ll conclude your studies with a 4- to 6-month professional experience in France or internationally, applying your skills and refining your career plan.
     

  • International double degree
    You also have the option to spend your entire final year at one of our partner universities, earning a double degree recognized worldwide. This unique opportunity enriches your academic profile, immerses you in a new culture, and helps you stand out in the job market.
