HEC Paris - Grande ecole vs. MBA

by learningmate » Wed Sep 14, 2011 11:58 am
Hi,

I plan to apply to HEC Paris, but I am not sure about the program.
Grande ecole (Masters in Mangement) or MBA.
I am an Asian belonging to the Indian subcontinent.
I am an engineering graduate with 3+ years of industry experience.
Few factors i m concerned about -
  • Course duration
  • Cost

Please reply if u have any inputs.

Thanks!

This answer should start with what do you want in life. Entrepreneur, consultant,banker or a generic management profile.
You have also provided very less bg information.
Anyways compare both programs for your own goals, inclination, salary offered, fees.
Master of Science (MSc) in Management, "Grande Ecole" degree is an 18-month program, designed for students who hold a Bachelor's degree in any field. The 1st year is comprised of general business courses; the 2nd year is devoted to the student's area of specialization and research project.
 
 
International recognition
 
Financial Times Rankings:

HEC is ranked number #1 Business School in Europe since 2006.
Ranked number #1 in Europe since 2005, the HEC Master of Science (MSc) in Management (Grande Ecole Program) has been ranked 2nd in 2009. Actually, as the CEMS Master reaches number 1 spot this year (CEMS is a consortium of schools in which HEC is a founding member), HEC remains on the very top of the Masters programs operating on the global market.

MBA is for you my friend. Grande Ecole is for students who go straight from an undergrad degree.
