Description Du Programme

A Bachelor’s degree designed to develop agile professionals capable of acting, transforming, and managing projects in a rapidly changing world. 

The Bachelor in Business Development prepares students to become project developers who can analyze needs, structure solutions, and support organizational transformation with agility.

Aligned with the Audace 6.0 initiative, the program incorporates the Fusion Trail, a shared curriculum across the three schools of the GA Education group — European Business School, École Ferrières, and École 89 — offering a transdisciplinary culture combining business, innovation, hospitality, and deeptech.

The curriculum is built on 100% company-oriented pedagogy. From the 2nd year, students can join the Accelis Alternance Trail, a private work-study program within the 70 companies of the Accelis group, enabling them to acquire operational skills and prepare for the pace of 3rd-year learning.

In the final year, four specializations focused on future-oriented careers are offered:

  • Digital Business Development (Sales, Marketing & AI)
  • Global Business Development (International Business Development)
  • Sustainable Business Development & Transformation (Impact & Social Innovation)
  • Human Tech Entrepreneurship (Project Creation and Management)

Through this progressive and immersive pathway, the Bachelor equips professionals with the agility to evolve and actively contribute to the transformations of the future.
