The Master in Management
(Grande École Degree)
program trains tomorrow’s
professionals to be able to
perform across the boundaries
between management and
other disciplines. Students
receive a thorough grounding
in management disciplines.
This gives them the confidence to confront, after many
experiences both in the classroom and off-campus, a
wide range of challenging and unique situations to which
they will be asked to provide innovative solutions.
Teaching methodology on the Grande École Degree
seeks to develop in students the ability to be creative
and innovative, and be fully aware of the consequences
of the decisions they take. To achieve this, action is put at
the center of the learning process. Student associations,
the Artem workshops, working with students from other
disciplines, internships and study periods abroad are just
some of the tools which students will be able to use to
develop their professional profile.
Throughout this learning process, students will have the
opportunity to develop skills in the area, or areas, of their
personal choice. In this way each student can, step by
step, prepare his or her career plan, helped by a personal
tutor who accompanies students from the moment they
enter the School.

3. OVERVIEWOFTHEPROGRAM
Artem is a unique alliance between
the École nationale supérieure
d’art et de design de Nancy, Mines
Nancy and ICN Business School. It
is a partnership which promotes,
in its educational programs,
interdisciplinarity, alternative learning methods, creativity and
innovation, all with a view to training a new generation of creators
and decision-makers.
If each School has its own specialisation and character, together they
make a unique alliance! The three Graduate Schools encourage their
students to think differently and take on challenges which are far
removed from their initial field of expertise. The objective is to develop
in them a new mind-set, a new behavioural approach which is more
appropriate to the complex and interdisciplinary nature of contemporary
practice and more akin to the agility, mobility and reactivity which
today’s society needs.
To do this,Artem calls on the specialist knowledge and skills of lecturers
and researchers from different cultures. It then designs course content
and teaching methods around a wide diversity of disciplines. This
approach responds to the expectations of socio-economic players, in
that it seeks to invent new arenas for discussion and cooperation, to give
added impetus to the links between research, creation and production,
and to highlight new skill sources and opportunities for development.

final year dissertation
The final year Dissertation provides an opportunity for students to examine in depth a problem which will be of interest to them in
their professional life.
Over and above the purely academic value of the exercise,enabling students to analyse a detailed topic and subsequently present the
results of their research in a rigorously argued case before Faculty members, the Dissertation prepares students for the professional
expertise required in their future career. This will prove invaluable during the search for employment which begins at the start of
the final year of study.

France
Nancy is a city with a rich historical legacy,due,to a large extent,
to Stanislas Leszczynski,King of Poland and Duke of Lorraine,who
endowed Nancy with the beautiful architecture of sites such as
the Place Stanislas, Place Carrière, Place d’Alliance, and Palais du
Gouverneur.All these sites are listed in the UNESCOWorld Heritage.
Nancy also has a very lively city center with pedestrian areas
bustling with activity. For those who seek a calmer, greener area, the
city possesses one of the biggest natural city-center parks in France,
‘la Pépinière’.
Throughout the year more than 200 shows, concerts, exhibitions,
operas, theatre performances and other events fill the Nancy calendar
and all at very affordable prices for students,who are 48 000 in the city.
4 campuses
around the world
Crossed by the Moselle rivers and over 470 hectares of green spaces,
Metz is one of France’s most floral cities. It is also a pleasant pedestrian
city to live.
City of art, Metz welcomes a lot of concerts, shows, exhibitions and, for
example, the Centre Pompidou-Metz, renowned center hosting exhibitions
of the prestigious collections from the National Gallery of ModernArt (Musée
National d’Art Moderne) which attracts visitors from all over Europe.
The ICN campus is located at the Technopôle de Metz, which has attracted
numerous French and international companies to set up there, along with a
number of other Graduate Schools. The Metz Métropole Enterprise Center,
dedicated to entrepreneurship, is located at the heart of the ICN campus.
Nuremberg, with more than half a million inhabitants, is the second largest
city in Bavaria and the capital of Franconia, a region of Germany which
combines history, nature, architecture and a host of cultural events.
Its charm as a picturesque medieval city, its modern character and its
dynamic economy, industry and technology make Nuremberg one of the
most important cities in the south of Germany.
The ICN campus is close to Nuremberg’s historic center and easily
accessible on foot, thus making it easy for students to enjoy the
city’s many attractions, particularly, at the end of the year, its famous
Christmas market.
Unlike traditional Chinese destinations, Chengdu is not located on
the east coast and thus retains a more traditional side that cities like
Shanghai or Beijing.
With nearly 17 million inhabitants, it is however a very modern
city known for « its relaxed lifestyle and pandas ». As a very active
economic center, the city of Chengdu is one of the cities in which the
Chinese state invests a lot because it represents the future of China.
The standard of living is very modern and access to all other
important areas in Asia is direct (international airport, high speed
train stations ...). The city is a great place to experience Chinese
culture and many universities in the city are among the best
universities in China. The mountainous regions surrounding also
can discover a little known aspect of China.
