Overview

The Bachelor in International Business (BIB) is designed for students who are not afraid to stand up to the challenges posed by today’s global business landscape, have the ambition to make a serious impact in shaping our society, and strive to become real changemakers in their future careers.

Through theoretical and applied courses, our Bachelor Program provides students with a solid understanding of the international business environment. The acquisition of an excellent foundation in the disciplines of management and the development of professional knowledge are assets for entering the professional sphere with confidence.

The program is accredited by the Université Catholique de Lille as a “Diplôme Universitaire”, by the French Ministry of Higher Education (VISA BAC+3) and certified with the Grade de Licence. The Bachelor in International Business, Diplôme d’Études Supérieures en Affaires Internationales (DESAI), is entirely taught in English on our Lille or Paris-La Défense campuses and is designed for students interested in Management and International Business.

Three internships (10 months minimum) and an international exchange and/or professional experience abroad (3 months minimum) are part of the program as well as the possibility of taking a double degree, our triple European Bachelor’s degree or a gap year.
