SKEMA is a global and international school with six different campuses: three in France (Paris, Lille and Sophia Antipolis, near Nice), one in the U.S. (Raleigh - on the campus of North Carolina State University), one in China (Suzhou) and now one in Brazil (Belo Horizonte). SKEMA is EQUIS and AACSB accredited and is a member of the CGE (Conférence des Grandes Ecoles). A number of its programs are highly ranked by "The Financial Times" and other organisations (SKEMA is ranked 10th in the world for its Masters in Finance, 29th in the world for its Masters in Management and 57th in European Business Schools). Its wide range of programs (Bachelors, Grande Ecole, Master's of Science and PhD) are taught in English. Majors offered include Marketing, Finance, Tourism Management, Logistics, Project Management, Entrepreneurship and Luxury Management. Thirty-five percent of SKEMA's student body are international, making it a truly cosmopolitan and diverse place to study. A SKEMA diploma is highly recognized and valued by leading international companies. SKEMA students receive help in securing an internship in France or elsewhere in the world, while an astounding 91% of the Class of 2012 MSc graduates found employment within 3 months of graduation, with 41% finding full-time employment before graduation. Top employers of SKEMA graduates include KPMG, PWC, EY, Deloitte, LVMH, Chanel and Accenture. SKEMA's largest campus is located in Europe's leading science and technology park, home to the world's most innovative companies as well as 11 universities and research institutes. As a result there are many internship possibilities in the area. Situated in the French Riviera, it offers a pleasant climate year-round and an abundance of opportunities to participate in outdoor sports. The attractive seaside cities of Nice and Cannes are located a short bus ride away. Average Temperatures Low (winter): 55°F/13°C High (summer): 82°F/28°C

Housing


An accommodation contract is very important for students of certain nationalities, as you may need this to apply for a visa or for a Residency Permit. There is a residence on-campus offering single rooms with private bathroom facilities (please note that the residence is not managed by SKEMA itself). Alternatively many SKEMA students decide to rent an apartment with the nearby coastal towns of Antibes and Juan les Pins particularly popular: 400 - 600 euros per month is the typical cost of renting outside the summer months with utility bills extra. Public transport between these two towns and the SKEMA campus is inexpensive and frequent. Further information about housing options can be found at

Student life

With a dynamic student social life, location and unique international program, you will develop your skills, knowledge, your languages and your cultural perspectives. All SKEMA campuses combined have a total enrollment of about 7122 with estimated international enrollment of about 2400 students..
