MSc Business Transformation for Sustainability: The rise of higher education programmes dedicated to ecological transitions

07/01/2025
At master's level, certain topics are becoming essential, such as ecological transition and data. All sectors are now affected by these issues.

Why is there a rise in training programmes dedicated to ecological transitions?

The rise in training programmes dedicated to ecological transitions can be explained by several key factors.

Climate urgency
Environmental issues, such as global warming and biodiversity loss, require concrete actions. Training programmes help develop experts to address these challenges.

Regulatory evolution
International and national laws are imposing stricter environmental standards, forcing companies to adapt. Professionals need to be trained to understand and apply these new regulations.

Growing demand in the job market
Companies are increasingly seeking expertise in sustainable development. Sectors related to renewable energy, the circular economy, and resource management are rapidly expanding.

Societal pressure and consumer expectations
Citizens and consumers demand environmentally friendly products and services. Companies must adjust their strategies and rely on experts to meet these expectations.

Economic opportunities
The ecological transition represents an economic growth lever. It fosters innovation, the creation of new industries, and new jobs, all of which require specific skills.

In its special feature on master's programmes, Le Parisien Etudiant used the MSc Business Transformation for Sustainability to illustrate the rise in training programmes dedicated to ecological transitions.

Fiammetta Cascioli, Director of the MSc Business Transformation for Sustainability, explains the importance of the programme:

Organisations are seeking profiles capable of managing complexity, juggling paradoxes, and communicating across different functions," explains Fiammetta Cascioli, Director of the MSc Business Transformation for Sustainability at KEDGE Business School. These professionals must therefore combine environmental knowledge (climate change, planetary boundaries, biodiversity), management skills (developing strategic roadmaps, steering), and strong leadership to guide teams towards a new model.
