Campus life
- ICN Business School chose to open its Paris campus in the heart of La Défense business district, a stone's throw from the head offices of the largest French companies.
The ICN Paris La Défense campus is a place for learning but also:
- A place where students, businesses, teaching staff and graduates can meet.
- A place where the whole ICN community can come together.
- A place that gives companies and decision hubs the opportunity to have a close relationship with the school and keep up to date with its activities.
Student clubs
- By joining one of our many clubs and societies, you'll have the opportunity to carry out and manage projects as though you were running a business.
- Not only will this greatly enhance your employability, it will also allow you to develop an understanding of the financial, marketing and commercial sides of business, teach you how to effectively work as part of a team, manage projects and stick to deadlines.
- You'll also have the chance to hone your entrepreneurial skills, come up with new ideas and enhance university life alongside other students.
Accreditation
- ICN holds accreditation from EQUIS, AMBA and AACSB, and its Master's in Management has been recognised as one of the best in the world by the Financial Times.
