Program Overview

The Economics, Data Analytics and Corporate Finance Master of Science and Technology is a two-year course taught entirely in English. It provides students with essential skills for strategic decision-making in the corporate world.

The program combines three complementary disciplines that are usually taught separately at this level of study:

Microeconomic analysis: The microeconomics component gives students the tools for learning about corporate strategic decisions and strategic interactions within an ever-changing environment. Students focus on areas such as market and industrial organization, game theory and econometrics.

Corporate finance: This field deals with the analysis of firm's financial decisions. The students get to grips with various analytical techniques according to each subject, and tackle quantitative case studies.

Data analytics: Gaining crucial knowledge in econometrics, statistics and big data, the program equips students with the skills to analyze and interpret data.

Admissions Prerequisites

This MSc&T program is primarily designed for students with a strong foundation in Mathematics and Economics. Its highly quantitative approach requires a solid command of Mathematics.

• Open to students with a finance or engineering background.

Many elements are very appreciate within this MSc&T. The theorical courses helps us build a fairly rational way approaching problems and leave us with a very useful structure of thought for our everyday life. I use many notions seen in class on a daily basis. I have always been drawn to financial analysis and today, my job is to evaluate and invest in companies specialized in the development of software for businesses.

ABOUT OUR ALUMNI

“ The first class just graduated and most of them already have jobs. A number of them are working in banking or the financial sector, some are going to do M&A, venture capital or join private equity firms; some of them are working in the consulting sector, with a focus on data analysis, and others have found a job in the industry where they also use their data-analytics skills. ” 

Marie-Laure Allain, Program Director
 

The EDACF Master opens the door to wide range of professional opportunities. Corporate Finance, Consulting, and strategy management are just a few of the career paths our students can choose:

CORPORATE FINANCE

The Program offers many opportunities in corporate finance, including mergers and acquisitions, investment funds and business ventures (students take specialized classes in start-up valuation).

CONSULTING

Our graduates are also hired by consulting firms. They receive training in both economic strategy analysis—particularly through an in-depth course in industrial economics—and data science studies geared towards the needs of consulting firms.

IN ADDITION...

Our students are given a strong technical base in data science, with a number of them going on to become big data experts, working across a variety of fields. Some of them become strategic data analysts in a consulting company, while others opt for professions in industry, or in marketing. For many, the natural choice is to become a data analyst, but our students are also fully qualified for strategy-oriented careers. A position in strategy management within a company is therefore a logical medium- to long-term career choice.

Graduates of the Program can easily join any type of company, from start-ups to multinational corporations, in fields such as digital transformation, data science and strategy.

Of course, students also have the opportunity to pursue PhD study after completing their Master’s.
