While the Business School's two main units, the ESPEME Bachelor programme and the EDHEC Grande Ecole Master programme are present on both the Lille and Nice campus, the School has nevertheless chosen to reinforce the specificity of each campus.
Over the last few years, the Nice campus has been given an increasingly international role with the portfolio of international programmes taught entirely in English on this campus. (Master of Science programmes, The Theseus-EDHEC MBA,Intercontinental Track and English Track (now also available in Lille) thus naturally find their place on this campus.
