The Master in Strategy & Digital Transformation is a 4-term* program completely taught in English language.

You'll find program's structure* here.

This program aims at cultivating digital masters that allow companies to transform digital technology into business advantage.

‘Digital transformation’ is a buzz phrase. Most organizations wish to implement it but do not know how to proceed. Oftentimes, it amounts to introducing some digital tools. However, digital transformation is a holistic and complex endeavor that requires a systematic approach to its strategy and execution.

A recent study finds that becoming a digital master entails not only digital capability, that is the use of innovative technologies to improve elements of the business, but also leadership capability, in order to envision and drive organizational change in systematic and profitable ways. Digital transformation is 20% tech and 80% human.

This Master aims at equipping the students with the digital technologies knowledge as well as the skills needed to design and successfully lead digital transformation across functions (e.g. operations, customer experience, employee experience) and at the corporate level (strategy, business model innovation).

KEY PROGRAM ADVANTAGES

  • A comprehensive and multidisciplinary approach to business and strategy.

  • Digital innovation and transformation live business case through a hackathon.
  • Accredited by the French Higher Education Ministry with a state-recognized ‘Grade de Master’.
