Creating an innovative startup, from the original idea to the first pitch
For their final internship, students are asked to integrate into a tech company to lead missions with a growing sense of responsibility, facing tasks that require autonomy and initiative. Such extensive and complex engagement provides students with an excellent opportunity to not only become familiar with a firm, but also to highlight their ability to analyze problems, to be part of a team of decision makers, and to propose viable solutions in a tech-driven environment. This final internship could lead to positions such as product owner, product release manager, product manager, etc.
*Please note that course titles were established in September 2023 and are subject to change.
After completing 3 years of the Bachelor in Management and Tech Design, students will obtain the Bachelor in Management and Tech Design diploma, delivered jointly by IÉSEG and RUBIKA.
Zoom on… the hands-on approach with 3 annual Capstone Projects
The program mindset is based on interdisciplinarity, real-life cases and teamwork as well as the necessary theoretical framework required for managerial positions, with an entrepreneurial mindset. Each year, students will carry out a capstone project in small teams, with coaching by both a faculty member and a tech professional.

An entrepreneurial, corporate and international focus
Preparing for the corporate world, being immersed in it, meeting today’s players to become tomorrow’s managers are all components of an IÉSEG and RUBIKA student’s career.
Innovative Startup Creation Challenge
Tech companies often scale up growing extremely fast. They have a strong entrepreneurial spirit, so graduates must be familiar with this specific mindset that fosters creativity. Tech employees and managers are doers, and dare bold things!
Just before graduating and getting their first job, the 3rd year capstone project will put students in tech entrepreneur’s shoes as they work in small teams to create an innovative business model/startup in any digital field (app, e-commerce, gaming, service, …).
Other aspects of this key projects include:
> Going from the idea to the first fundraising pitch (requiring strong presentation skills to convince potential investors)
> A highly transdisciplinary (management & tech) and hands-on approach
> A fully-functioning prototype required
> Being advised by academics, coached by professionals
> The possibility of an intrapreneurial venture
International Exposure
1 program, 2 countries, 3 campuses*
Many tech companies have expanded their global presence, as they now recruit more and more talents from across borders, and frequently outsource their coding work to countries with significant cultural differences.
Given this international landscape, it is now crucial for young managers in tech companies to be trained in intercultural environments. Indeed, intercultural exposure is not only essential for their personal growth but also critical for the success and sustainability of tech companies operating in an interconnected world. Embracing interculturality fosters creativity, collaboration, and innovation, making the company more adaptable, competitive, and attractive to both talents and customers worldwide.
To equip students with this key factor of success, the Bachelor in Management and Tech Design program includes several semesters on RUBIKA’s campuses abroad.
