The first year is given over to a course on ethics and corporate social responsibility, a core element of the LSM teaching plan, and courses on management (accounting and financial analytics, marketing, a management seminar), economics, the theoretical foundations of management, and management tools and methods (management mathematics, statistics and probability, business informatics).
The programme then combines management topics (strategy, finance, production, HR management, management control) with quantitative methods (statistical inference, econometrics, operational research) and business informatics (algorithmics, data management, computer programming), and technology.
You will also continue your studies of economics (microeconomics and macroeconomics) and the corporate legal environment.
In the third year, you have an entrepreneurial project and a professional development project, which will introduce you to the business world. You will also have the opportunity to project yourself into the company of the future through seminars that tackle issues such as social change and the digital transformation of our society and its organisations.
Two language courses, one of which is English, are taught in each year.
The programme of the first year (60 credits) is identical to the first year of the Bachelor in Management programme.
From the second year onwards, students can undertake a student mobility programme with the Haute Ecole Louvain en Hainaut (HELHa) and, during the second and third year, can opt for a technology course in electromechanics or biochemistry. Access to both these options is by and the courses are taught at HELHa.
For students who do not take up one of these options, their whole programme will take place at UCLouvain FUCaM Mons.
