One of the things I have really appreciated at emlyon is the mix between academic depth and practical relevance. On the one hand, you have professors who have spent their careers in research and really push academic thinking forward. On the other, there are guest lecturers who are active professionals, coming in to teach specific courses and share their practical, hands-on experience. That combination has played a significant role in making the program so valuable for me. I think the way the MSc is designed — covering areas such as international marketing, business development, strategy and sales — has helped me become a much more well-rounded professional. You get a truly 360-degree view.
