AFTER THE DEGREE?
After the Degree, our students go on to a Masters Degree in management, accounting, banking management, digital commerce, law and wealth management, management control…
During an internship in a company during high school, I discovered the supply chain and purchasing sectors which I really liked. This experience was decisive in the choice of my studies. I chose the Economics and Finance bachelor’s degree, on the one hand for its multidisciplinarity, and on the other because it offered the political science course which greatly interested me.
Moreover, in addition to the good reputation of the university, it is a course which offers good professional prospects and many outlets. It was very important for me that my course did not close doors to me, as I didn’t have a specific professional direction. For my part, this degree allowed me to acquire a solid foundation in economics, as well as to develop thoroughness and precision in my work. I had the chance to work with teachers and managers with a good pedagogical approach who listened to everyone.
After my degree, I would like to enter Science Po Paris or an IEP in order to achieve a master’s degree in international relations or European affairs
The interest of the Economics and Finance degree programme is the variety of courses offered, allowing not only to acquire a solid foundation in economics, but also to discover other disciplines such as accounting or management, and thus to keep a wide choice of possible courses open for a masters.
Having interests other than the economy, I really appreciated the opening subjects.
Thanks to its moderate size, the advantage of being a student at the FGES is the accompaniment and support available for our professional direction, with an administration and teachers who know us and listen to us.
I completed the 3rd year of my bachelor’s degree in Seoul, as part of a university exchange which allowed me to meet other students from all over the world, and maintaining these contacts can always prove to be useful in the future.
I also took advantage of this exchange to do my Bachelor 3 internship in Seoul.
Today doing a “Development Economics” Masters at the Sorbonne, I am positive that the degree in Economics and Finance gave me the solid foundation required to continue my studies in economics and other useful knowledge to help me stand out from other students.
