“HEC Paris’ core belief is that those who can transcend cultural boundaries and respond to different markets are the most sought-after leaders. The NUS-HEC Paris Double Degree MBA Programme provides many opportunities for high potential managers to experience global mobility, preparing them to be tomorrow’s global leaders and part of an 85,000 strong combined alumni network.

 

The HEC Paris and NUS Business School partnership enhances the attractiveness of both programmes by giving students exposure to the heart of the European Community and a gateway to Asia. The fast changing and highly competitive Asian markets present new challenges to those unfamiliar with Asian best practices and business processes. By providing students with cross-cultural management experience, they will lead with confidence, in unfamiliar cultures and environments. NUS Business School’s programme excellence in areas such as finance and strategy, among others, will contribute towards a manager’s success across industries. With this greater degree of confidence in quantitative skills these leaders will be one step closer towards achieving the bottom line.

 

The excellence of NUS Business School in research and its unique portfolio of business programmes with an Asia focus present a unique opportunity for HEC students looking to embark on a global career.”
