KEDGE is based in southern France but has a global reach. With four campuses in France, two in China (Shanghai and Suzhou) and two in Africa (Dakar and Abidjan since the start of the 2020 academic year), the School deploys its know-how in regions where there are opportunities and requirements.
Firmly rooted in our regions
KEDGE collaborates on employability, learning methods and research with 300 business partners. Thanks to its strong ties with the Chambers of Commerce and local business clubs, the school is committed to the economic activity of its local regions. It also collaborates with its alumni established locally in the regions surrounding Bordeaux, Marseille, Paris and Toulon.
KEDGE continues to expand its activities in Paris notably in higher education and executive education. The new programmes under development will be able to receive an additional 1300 students by 2025. Paris is responding by setting up a campus scaled to suit the schools future growth and activities.
Opened to the world
KEDGE recently expanded its presence in Africa with the opening of a campus in Abidjan to add to the Dakar one opened in 2016.
It is developing programmes of excellence in China with CAFA and Renmin universities and plans to deploy its expertise in South-East Asia and India.
Its presence in Europe is growing through new and solid partnerships. The School is developing new agreements with renowned universities.
Among its network of graduates, 15,000 are working abroad and the school has 60 alumni branches around the world.
KEDGE plans to strengthen its support to recruit foreign students and develop specific employability structures. KEDGE has set itself the objective of multiplying the number of international students by 4 by 2025.
International development
KEDGE is also strengthening the internationalisation and interculturality of its campuses in France.
Higher education programmes all offer the possibility of taking at least a year entirely in English.
The curriculum of the 14 MSc offered by KEDGE is in English which enables students to develop the skills essential to work in a globalised economy. Those programmes attract many international students.
24% of KEDGE students and 45% of the school faculty are international.
Finally, the internal International Mindset project offers the school's employees various activities to develop their skills and their intercultural openness in order to better support international students.
