Between 2024 and 2025, EDHEC Business School consolidated its international footprint by signing 28 academic partnerships around the world. Here follows a round-up of the latest agreements.

                                                                                                                 

Triple-accredited institutions

EDHEC has recently signed partnerships with a number of triple-accredited institutions (EQUIS, AACSB, AMBA), including HEC Montréal (Canada) and ESADE Business School (Spain). Both of them offer EDHEC International BBA second-year students the chance to obtain a Global Manager Certificate, a qualification recognised internationally for its managerial and inter-cultural dimensions. 

These institutions also work with EDHEC’s Master programmes. HEC Montréal, for example, offers a double degree for Master in Business Management students and belongs to the QTEM Masters Network Program, a grouping of the world’s top business and management schools. And in Asia, Sun Yat-sen University in Canton (China), regularly ranked among the country’s top 10 academic institutions, hosts EDHEC Master in Business Management students on exchange programmes.

 

New partners for the BBA

At the same time, the EDHEC International BBA has added four new prestigious academic partners to its international network. Three of them are triple-accredited (EQUIS, AACSB, AMBA): INSPER (São Paulo, Brazil), the University of the Andes – School of Management (Bogota, Colombia) and ESADE Business School (Barcelona, Spain). The fourth, the University of Tennessee – Haslam College of Business (Knoxville, USA), holds the internationally recognised AACSB accreditation, thus aligning the network even more firmly with international quality standards. 


These partnerships give students the chance to study for a semester in one of these institutions, while obtaining their EDHEC credits. Based on simple exchanges, these collaborations enhance the international mobility of master students and deepen their exposure to diverse economic and cultural contexts.

 

Expanding academic mobility for the Masters in Finance and Data Science

EDHEC has opened up new international perspectives for students on theMasters in Financeand Data Science. In the USA, the University of Tampa, an AACSB-accredited institution recognised for the excellence of its Business Analytics programmes, hosts students on the Master in Data Science & AI for Business as part of a double-degree. In Asia, the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen metropolitan area) offers academic exchange programmes for EDHEC Master in Finance students.

 

Africa and Asia, new foundation

EDHEC has established a first foothold in Morocco through two strategic partnerships with Al Akhawayn University (based in Ifrane), which hosts students on the Masters in Business Management and Data Science & AI for Business, and with the Business School of the International University of Rabat, which is also open to EDHEC Master in Business Management students. Both of these institutions offer academic exchange programmes. 

In India, new exchange agreements have been signed for Master in Data Science students with the Great Lakes Institute of Management (Haryana State campus and Chengalpattu district) and Manipal University.

 

Europe, consolidating the existing network

Elsewhere, in Europe, agreements signed with Goethe University (Frankfurt, Germany) and the University of Bradford - School of Management (UK), also open new exchange possibilities for Master in Finance and Business Management students. Lastly, a new agreement has been forged with Solvay Brussels School of Economics and Management (Belgium), which strengthens EDHEC’s academic network on the continent.
