有下面三个主要问题
1. 英语标准，要求托福或者雅思，如果有大学六级没有问题，四级的话分数高点也可以。因为录取是合作院校决定，所以不一定是托福和雅斯那么严格，当然学生有更好。
但是有个小问题就是，当然我也是比较直接了阿，不要介意。因为我们和中国机构合作是第一次，而且暑期课程也不是特别简单，往年学生反映学习压力也不小，因为要拿学分所以还有考试，所以我们在选择学生上语言还是要把关，为了以后的合作。
2. 人数，参加三个项目的总人数从5名到40，50都没有问题的。
3. 支付，20人以上团体折扣10%，30到15%
感兴趣的同学，请准备：
1.交换生申请表
2.英文能力证明、成绩单
3.个人学习计划

IMUSE Foundation-2009 Beijing Summer Fellowship
Initiating Mutual Understanding through Student Exchange (IMUSE) aims to promote broad understanding between people in China and North America by bringing together top college and graduate students from both regions to think about key issues. This cultural exchange culminates in a two-week conference in Beijing.
Mission
Initiating Mutual Understanding through Student Exchange (IMUSE) aims to foster mutual curiosity, respect, and understanding between people in China and North America by providing top college and graduate students from these regions an intimate forum for discussion and deep personal reflection about the key issues affecting China and their own regions today. IMUSE currently has three primary goals:
Socially intimate and intellectually meaningful face-to-face interactions among a small group of promising North American and Chinese college and university students to increase mutual curiosity, trust, and understanding among them;
Development and maintenance of an alumni network to effect high-impact, positive social change through the continued collaboration of former participants of IMUSE events;
Maintenance of a strong partnership among its satellites at Harvard, Tsinghua, and Peking Universities to maximize fruitful international exchange among members of our staff.
These goals are achieved through a variety of means, the most important of which is an annual conference among top college and graduate students from North America and China in Beijing. Other events overseen by IMUSE include but are not limited to essay, photography, and other creative work competitions; campus speaker events; social gatherings; mini-conferences for alumni in China and North America, and more.
Welcome to IMUSE!
Current Programs
The IMUSE 2009 Beijing Summer Fellowship Program will bring thirty outstanding students from Chinese and American colleges and graduate schools together from August 9 to August 21, 2009 to share their opinions, experience Chinese culture, and learn from one another. During the fellowship, Chinese and American delegates will participate alongside one another in a variety of activities designed to be both academically and personally enriching. Delegates will participate in panel discussion events with a student audience, where they will discuss the pertinent issues facing Chinese-American relations today. They will interact with and learn from distinguished guest speakers, which in past IMUSE events have included distinguished academics and celebrities from both America and China. As IMUSE is strongly committed to improving the quality of life for individuals in both countries, the fellowship will include a short period of public service within an underprivileged community. Other activities and workshops will cover a variety of topics from politics to pop culture to food. All events will be carried out in English, and no knowledge of Chinese is necessary.
In an effort to help students become familiar with Beijing and all that it has to offer, IMUSE will facilitate tours to sites of cultural interest as well as major businesses and government offices within the city. In addition, two days of the fellowship will be spent visiting a village outside Beijing, granting delegates a rare opportunity to glimpse the rural China so often overlooked by Western visitors. In order to help document their experiences, delegates will each keep a blog during the two weeks that will be uploaded onto the IMUSE website.
Students will stay the two weeks in a hotel and have all necessary living expenses paid for, including accommodations, food, ground transportation, and $500 toward transportation to and from Beijing.
IMUSE hopes that this dynamic, multidisciplinary, and challenging two weeks will expose both American and Chinese delegates to a better understanding of each other, and foster friendships and relationships that last long after the two weeks have ended.
The program will include 15 delegates from North American schools and 15 delegates from Chinese schools. All students in an American postsecondary school (including two- and four-year colleges, graduate schools, and vocational, technical, and trade schools) are eligible to apply. Students need not be American citizens to apply. Applications to be an American delegate are currently open and are due on April 1, 2009.
Select applicants will be contacted for English-language Skype interviews shortly after the application deadline, and fellows will be announced in late April.

ADVANCED MANAGEMENT ELECTIVES (30 hours = 5 ECTS)

This course will introduce students to the role of business in modern western society. It is designed to form a link between historical and business studies. Though business activity and institutions have had an enormous impact in shaping the modern world, most students of society and even business practitioners have little sense of how commercial undertakings have evolved and interacted with other social institutions.
LAOD/A7 - The European model: does the European model lead to a European model of doing business?
Teacher: Pierre Morel
Monday 9h -12h and Friday 13h30 -16h30
This course aims at familiarizing participants with the different stages of the construction of a Single Market in Europe. It focuses both on the elements which bind this Union and on the hurdles which prevent it from moving ahead more quickly. Participants will be exposed to the traditions and habits which, in spite of growing European harmonization and regulation, may keep many business approaches and decisions purely local in their nature.
OA01/A7 - Positional bargaining: negotiation workshop

MB03/A7 –International Business Management
Teacher: Andreas Kaplan
Wednesday 9h00-12h00 and Friday 9h00-12h00
Since the end of World War II, the trend toward Free Trade and accelerating technological change has been pulling the world's economies and people closer together in a process we call globalization. In this context, this course is designed to introduce students to the key issues companies face when conducting business internationally. In our class, we will draw on different functional areas to examine some of the central ideas and processes in managing businesses across boundaries.
INTRODUCTORY MANAGEMENT ELECTIVES (15 hours = 2.5 ECTS)
BE77/A7- Supply chain management
Teacher : Valérie Moatti

Teacher : Isaac Getz
Monday 13h30-16h30 (start of the semester)
and Wednesday 17h-20h (start of the semester)
Nowadays, it's hard to pass by a shop without reading “we're ISO 9000 certified”. Why such a rush for a simple standard? In fact for many companies it's just following a quality management fad. However, some do not fall in the trap. They do use the management tools, such as TQM or 6 Sigma for quality, but first of all they are aware of the British saying “A fool with a tool is still a fool”.
Housing Possibilities
ESCP-EAP has no accommodation on-campus. However, the school has an agreement with a student residence called “Le Vivaldi”. The Residence is about 35 minutes away by metro and there is a direct bus from the residence to the school which takes about 25 minutes. Rent is about 699 euros for a 20 sq meter studio and 586 euros for a 18 sq meter studette (all equipped with a bathroom and a small kitchen). Rent includes electricity, water and heating. Students need to buy their own dishes and linen.
Please note that availabilities at the residence can only be notified by May 2009.
Students can also apply for accommodation at the Cite Universitaire Internationale : www.ciup.fr
They can also choose to look for a private flat. However they should be aware that it is very difficult to find a flat in Paris for a short term rental.
Students can regularly check for accommodation ads published on the school intranet.
Application deadlines
A response by February 16th 2009 would be much appreciated for nominations of your students.
I enclose an application form and course choice form that your student can fill out and send back to me by email before February 27th 2009. Students can choose a maximum of 90 hours (3 courses of 30 hours or the equivalent of one 30 hours course in 2x15 hours course)
Please note that some courses may be cancelled because of a low demand.
For additional information please do not hesitate to contact me.

Copenhagen Busines School
The CBS International Summer University Program (ISUP) is open to:
International students interested in summer studies at Copenhagen Business School, Northern Europe's largest business school
All CBS students
Danish students from other institutions of higher education
Professionals seeking to further develop their knowledge and skills
This six-week summer offers students the option of completing the equivalent of a half semester (15 ECTS credits) in a multicultural environment. A full load consists of two of the courses taught by outstanding academics. The International Summer University Program includes both undergraduate and graduate level courses.
Active involvement of international senior executives from Danish and multinational companies will be an integral part of many of the courses.
Summer in the City?
Definitely worth considering when the city is Copenhagen where the streets are filled with sidewalk cafes and the midnight sky is never darker than a deep blue. Close to the city and waiting for you to discover are quaint mediaeval towns, white beaches and lovely forests. You can walk the winding streets of the old city center or see it from a canal boat. Start your visit at the city of Copenhagen's website www.visitcopenhagen.com .
Your extra-curricular activities will include many things such as getting to know both modern Danish Design and Architecture, as well as a little of the Iron and Viking Ages. Travel is easy from Copenhagen and on a weekend you can take a cruise to Oslo for a variation on the Scandinavian theme or a train trip to Berlin to see how East and West are getting along.
Both international as well as national students can participate in the program. Please check under “prospective students” for further information on admission requirements. Depending on whether you are an international or national students you should contact different offices regarding your application and admission to the program: All international students should work with the ISUP Secretariat at the International Office, while all national students should work with the Electives Secretariat until after the first week of ISUP 2009 classes.
The application deadline for all students is March 1st, 2009.

International students interested in summer studies at Copenhagen Business School, Northern Europe's largest business school
All CBS students
Danish students from other institutions of higher education
Professionals seeking to further develop their knowledge and skills
This six-week summer offers students the option of completing the equivalent of a half semester (15 ECTS credits) in a multicultural environment. A full load consists of two of the courses taught by outstanding academics. The International Summer University Program includes both undergraduate and graduate level courses.
Active involvement of international senior executives from Danish and multinational companies will be an integral part of many of the courses.
Summer in the City?
Definitely worth considering when the city is Copenhagen where the streets are filled with sidewalk cafes and the midnight sky is never darker than a deep blue. Close to the city and waiting for you to discover are quaint mediaeval towns, white beaches and lovely forests. You can walk the winding streets of the old city center or see it from a canal boat. Start your visit at the city of Copenhagen's website www.visitcopenhagen.com .
Your extra-curricular activities will include many things such as getting to know both modern Danish Design and Architecture, as well as a little of the Iron and Viking Ages. Travel is easy from Copenhagen and on a weekend you can take a cruise to Oslo for a variation on the Scandinavian theme or a train trip to Berlin to see how East and West are getting along.
Both international as well as national students can participate in the program. Please check under “prospective students” for further information on admission requirements. Depending on whether you are an international or national students you should contact different offices regarding your application and admission to the program: All international students should work with the ISUP Secretariat at the International Office, while all national students should work with the Electives Secretariat until after the first week of ISUP 2009 classes.
The application deadline for all students is March 1st, 2009.
