Bachelor in Management (BSc)

About the course

A three-year, 180 ECTS general management degree taught on three different ESCP campuses, one per year, chosen from Berlin, London, Madrid, Paris and Turin, with a major or electives in Year 3. Teaching is in English in Berlin, London, Madrid and Turin; Paris teaches in English with some courses in French.

Entry requirements for Irish students

• ESCP publishes no Irish-specific Leaving Cert requirement; it asks for school transcripts and school-leaving exam results. German rules may also apply to the German state degree (ESCP says German degrees are available ‘with certain requirements’). Under German rules the Leaving Cert gives direct entry to business only with six subjects, two at Higher Level at H5 or better (the rest O6/H6 or better), including two languages, and Higher Level Maths at H5. Confirm with ESCP admissions how your Leaving Cert will be assessed.
• Selection is based on transcripts of your last three years of school, your school-leaving exam results (or later, when received), a personal statement in English, a CV and an optional academic reference. Successful applicants are invited to an online interview with at least two people, including faculty. No entrance test is listed.
• English: IELTS 6.5, CAE 180 or TOEFL iBT (listed as 4.5 on the new TOEFL scale) is required unless you are exempt. ESCP’s programme page does not say whether Leaving Cert English or schooling in Ireland exempts you, so check with admissions. If you choose Paris in Year 2 or 3 you need French at B1 (Year 2) or C1 (Year 3).
