The EDHEC Global MBA’s faculty is also diverse, with a total of 26 international (non-French) professors out of 45 part-time and full-time faculty members. There are 11 female professors and 12 visiting professors.
The 2022 “Which MBA?” ranking also highlights another strength of the EDHEC Global MBA: it is beneficial to students who want to take on new leadership roles in multinationals, non-profits, SMEs, and start-ups.
