On
the ground, this rise has resulted in a net increase of 12% in eligible
candidates for 2021, i.e., double the number from 2019. Thus, over the last 8
years, SKEMA has shown a constant progression and gained seven places in the
SIGEM. “This is the result of the work undertaken by SKEMA over the last few
years in its Master in Management programme, by firstly introducing continuum
courses in 2018 via the ThinkForward programme and then by constantly
innovating and developing with new campuses (the flagship Grand Paris Campus at
the beginning of the year, a new City Campus in Brazil for the start of the
2021 academic year, and other locations soon) and multiple agreements with
exceptional international academic institutions such as American UCLA
Extension, Berkeley, NYU SPS and Loyola (New Orleans), and the European LMU
(Munich)”, said Patrice Houdayer, Vice-Dean in charge of Programmes,
International and Student Life at SKEMA Business School.
An ambitious strategy
In addition to this in-depth work on its teaching, SKEMA owes its attractiveness to SKY25, an ambitious strategic plan which sets out the five-year objectives of a truly global research institution.
In total, 7909 candidates chose SKEMA for the entrance exam. In proportion, this represents 81% of the candidates of the BCE - Banque commune d'épreuves.
