Master in Business Administration (MBA)
In 1969, HEC Paris launched the HEC MBA Program, becoming one of Europe's first MBA Schools. It aims to differentiate from other MBAs by its diversity, its bilingual option, its 16-month curriculum structure, and the MBA Tournament organized by its students.
The Institut supérieur des affaires is the department of the school that manages its MBA program. This program attracts students from around the world with more than 55 nationalities represented in the 2008 graduating class. The selection process seeks a balance between academic achievement, professional experience, international exposure, and personal motivation. Knowledge of French is not an entry requirement, but participants are highly encouraged to have a basic knowledge of French by the start of the MBA Program.
The MBA Program has exchange and double degree partnerships with numerous universities and business schools around the world. It also offers a Part-Time MBA program.
In 2010, HEC MBA was ranked by the Financial Times as 7th among European business schools, and 18th among worldwide business schools. The Economist, on the other hand, ranked HEC MBA as 3rd in Europe and 9th worldwide.

—Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)
“Towns find it as hard as houses of business to rise again from ruin.”
