Recognized among the top world business schools, HEC offers a unique lifetime experience to those who seek to be accomplished business leaders. With more than 80% of students coming from outside France, representing over 55 nationalities in classes and teams, the collective quality of ideas, projects, and creative business solutions generated in the program are relevant to the modern world of global business.
20 kilometers south of Paris on a wooded campus, HEC is located in Jouy-en-Josas at the heart of the European business community. The town provides a welcome retreat from the busier French capital without limiting access to Paris and other parts of France. The community is also home to the Centre for Managerial Research & Studies and is connected to Versailles by railway. Jouy-en-Josas is an ideal way for students to experience the many facets of French culture in both a quaint French town and a major international business and travel hub.
HEC offers a wide choice of French and English management courses and electives in the
fields of:
- Finance
- Marketing
- Economics
- Human Resource Management
- Accounting
- Law
- Strategy
- MIS
- General Culture
French language courses are offered before the term starts. For more information on courses available on this program visit HEC’s

HEC will assist students with finding accommodations on campus if preferred. The HEC campus has 10 student halls with a total of 813 furnished rooms available for students and international students are given priority. However, housing can be limited and students should strictly adhere to all applications deadlines. Students wishing to live off-campus or in Paris may also arrange housing on their own.
These estimates will vary based on student preference and exchange rates. All details subject to change based on economic and international factors.
