A program unique to Western Switzerland!

The Haute Ecole de Gestion de Genève of the University of Applied Sciences Western Switzerland is offering a unique degree program in International Business Management. 

This program is entirely taught in English and covers the fundamental business management subjects, with an international and intercultural flavor.

Ideally set in the International Geneva Region

The Haute Ecole de Gestion de Genève (HEG) is located at the heart of a unique international crossroads and is ideally positioned to offer a Bachelor's degree in International Business Management. This Bachelor degree gives you a privileged access to the region’s key international players such as international companies, multinational corporations as well as the internationally oriented governmental and non-governmental organizations. The region also boasts numerous small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that have international or internationalized activities, and will welcome your skills.

Fully taught in English

The entire curriculum is taught in English and a minimal level is a prerequisite for admission (see Admission conditions). Nonetheless, your English proficiency develops naturally as a result of the program’s total immersion. In addition, oral and written English communication courses are part of the curriculum, in order to improve your mastery of the language for business purposes.
