Program
The program of study is progressive, with an initial emphasis on the fundamentals of management relating to HR, Accounting and Statistics. After a common base of two years, the students are given a choice towards more specific bodies of knowledge with different course packages: marketing-commerce or finance-management. Courses in the third year are delivered exclusively in English, which was revolutionary and controversial in France.[citation needed] Further specialization occurs in the 4th year, and industry-specific courses are delivered in the 5th year ensuring students are ready for real world situation as soon as they graduate.
The EMLV program places an emphasis on student exposure to real case studies with businesses by providing consulting services to the school's business partners.
