Programme structure

The structure of your programme will depend on your previous academic background.

  • Students who have obtained a Belgian Master's degree in a field other than management or a non-Belgian Master's degree must follow the core courses programme. This programme consists of compulsory and elective courses spread over two terms and a final paper. (Please note that students who do not have the required background in economics will have the prerequisite course LESPO2100 "Political Economy" added to their programme. Those who do not have a basic knowledge of mathematics and statistics will have the prerequisite course LECGE1112 "Mathematics in Economics and Management I" added to their programme.)
  • Students who have obtained a Bachelor's degree in Economics and Management must follow the advanced version of the Master 60. This adapted programme includes courses that are taught intensively over six weeks. Assessments may be organised at the end of each six-week part or during the examination sessions at the end of the four-month period to complement the continuous assessment (intermediate tests, individual and group work) that is organised during this part. This adapted Master's programme also includes one or more courses given over a whole term as well as the final paper.
  • Students who have obtained a short non-university bachelor's degree, from the official list visible on the access conditions page, must follow the Preparatory module. This preparatory module includes compulsory courses spread over two terms.
  • Students who have successfully completed the Preparatory module courses must then follow the advanced version of the Master 60 (see 2nd bullet point here above).
