ESCP Business School's slogan, "European Identity, Global Perspective", is entirely represented in the various programmes we offer within our Bachelor's, Master's and MBA degrees. Integrated curricula enable students to study on several of our different European campuses or at one of our more than 100 partner universities across the globe during the scope of their studies.

Europe can be described as embracing maximum cultural diversity within minimal geographical distances. The school's cross-border multi-campus structure, combined with its highly culturally diverse student and faculty body, makes ESCP Business School a natural expert in multi-national/cross-cultural management and entrepreneurship education, not only in Europe but all around the world.

ESCP Business School ascribes the utmost value and importance to academic excellence. The school has earned the prestigious triple-crown accreditation (EQUIS, AACSB), an achievement attained by only one percent of business schools worldwide. In addition, ESCP Business School has achieved top positions in national and international rankings such as that of the Financial Times. 

In addition to offering classical business courses in finance, marketing, or strategy, we enable our students to study management from an interdisciplinary approach, through such subjects as creativity, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Corporate social responsibility and societal management aspects are discussed in many of our courses. Finally, ESCP Business School encourages students to round out their managerial and entrepreneurial education through personal development, e.g., the participation in the school's various student societies and sport clubs.

FAQs

Although this is an entrepreneurship programme, the MSc in Sustainability Entrepreneurship & Innovation (MSEI) is not an incubator. You will, however, learn to exchange and elaborate on ideas, and creatively solve ecological and social challenges with entrepreneurial ways of thinking and working. The programme’s curriculum is strongly rooted in theoretical and conceptual knowledge in the broad topics of sustainability, entrepreneurship, innovation, business development, and intercultural management – this is roughly 50% of the programme. An additional 25% is spent on preparing you for your career (language courses, communication, etc.) and to complete a master thesis (research methods, etc.). The other 25% of the curriculum is spent on gaining practical experience with a company consultancy project, a year-long sustainable lifestyles venture, and an internship or business development project.
This programme is for candidates who are passionate about sustainability topics but also arrive at ESCP with an entrepreneurial spirit, whether evidenced by previous work experience, extracurricular activities, or even hobbies. The MSEI programme is most suited to candidates who have an academic background (can be a major or a minor) in business or management and are ready to revisit these topics specifically with a sustainability and entrepreneurship lens. Candidates will be recent college graduates, with no more than a one or two years of full-time work experience, and be keen to study in an international environment. It’s for those who, after graduating, are interested in setting up their own business, a new business unit, a corporate spin-off, or other types of commercial project dedicated to solving a specific sustainability problem.
After graduating with the MSc in Sustainability Entrepreneurship & Innovation, you will be prepared to work as an entrepreneur in your own business, or as an intrapreneur within existing organizations of all types. You’ll also be well-suited to lead or join start-ups, launch corporate spin-offs, business development units, or incubators. Some example job titles include: Sustainable business developer Impact manager Sustainability consultant Project manager Innovation strategist Venture architect Sustainability marketer Venture analyst
