Professional consulting projects

During the two semesters, our students will plan and execute consulting project with multinational companies, think tanks, high tech SMEs, among others which are part of the Master ecosystem. Student consulting teams will assess the performance of their “clients”, identify business opportunities, design solutions and launch their implementation.

That unique experience complements the theoretical formation of our graduates. In the past many companies have used the consulting services of our students such as: Thales, Mairie de Paris, Engie, A1 Telekom, FnacDarty, SAP, Credit Agricole, Schneider Electric, Takeda

Internship

A four-month (six months for Two-Year MSc students) work experience done at the end of the academic period is required to obtain an MSc degree. Students can get this work experience from an internship placement, an employment contract or a V.I.E.

Fall intake students can do an internship between the end of the spring semester up to December of the same year. Spring intake students can do an internship between their two academic semesters or after their second semester.

Master thesis

The master thesis is worth 18 credits.

The master thesis is an important part of the MSc degree, taking students a step on from undergraduate studies in terms of academic rigour, analysis and presentation. It is here that students will display their ability to master a chosen area of study, closely supported by a supervisor from SKEMA’s faculty.

Master theses are to be submitted after finishing the two academic semesters, normally beginning of September with defense by mid-October. Spring students may also submit their theses at the end of May with defense mid-June
