Presentation
After obtaining a scientific Master's degree, engineering degree or equivalent, you want to obtain a double competence in the field of business management. The IAE Montpellier offers you to follow the Master MAE (mainly in M2)
This diploma course in management is intended for non-specialists in management. It offers a generalist training as well as a deepening in one of the three following professions (courses recognized by the State):
- Project Manager - Controlling
- Product Manager - Marketing Department
- Functional Business Unit Manager
Objectives
The MAE aims to train non management specialists with an "engineer" or scientific profile in management.
In the many sectors where technology is evolving and innovation is permanent, this dual competence is a key to the success of the integration and evolution of the managers trained. In fact, it provides them with two significant advantages:
- Better integration and development in the company, thanks to better recognition and ability to communicate with the technical sphere (knowledge and recognition by counterparts with a "scientific" profile who work in "production", "R&D", "sourcing" functions, etc.)
- A better ability to manage innovative projects and products, thanks to a thorough understanding of both technical and managerial aspects.
Know-how and skills
Skills:
- Generalist in management
- Specialist in one of the professions offered through the three paths:
- Project manager - management control
- Product manager - marketing management
- Entrepreneurship - company management
Programme
This Master is organised in two years and in four semesters from S1 to S4 or in one year, S3 and S4.
The first semester of the M1 is a common core. Specialisation takes place in the second semester.
The Master 2 is divided into three phases: acquisition of the fundamentals (3 months), professional specialisation (3 months) and internship (6 months). The internship, linked to the specialisation, represents a real springboard towards the company. It allows the practical application of academic knowledge and often leads to a fixed-term or permanent contract.
