Dear Partner,
We are happy to announce the Summer Session management program at ESCP-EAP at our campus in the heart of Paris! This 5 weeks program at ESCP-EAP Paris offers 7 management courses and is addressed to students from our partner universities, interested in studying at the Master's in Management level during the summer in Paris.
All courses are in English. There are full courses and half courses.
A full course = 30 contact hours = 5 ECTS
A half course = 15 contact hours = 2,5 ECTS
Students may choose to attend the equivalent of 3 full courses (90 contact hours maximum)
Courses will take place twice a week in 3 hours sessions each.
There are no tuition fees for students from our partner universities.
ADVANCED MANAGEMENT ELECTIVES (30 hours = 5 ECTS)
OA08/A7 – Business experience
Teacher: Christopher Kobrak
Wednesday 13h30-16h30 and Thursday 17h00 - 20h00
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
Teacher: Leslie Shaw
Monday 17h-20h and Tuesday 17h-20h
Good negotiation skills are the key to professional and personal success. At the end of this workshop you will be able to : Plan and conduct a negotiation, solo or as part of a team, Employ appropriate strategies and tactics, Break deadlock and resolve conflicts Positional Bargaining© : 4 Step Method - Prepare Objectives - Information - Concessions - Variables - Strategy - Teamwork - Argue Communication Protocol - Signalling - Propose Concessions - Conditions - Linking - Packaging – Bargain etc.
MA06/A7 –Marketing strategy and performances

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
Tuesday 9h-12h (end of the semester – from 23/06/09)
And Thursday 13h30-16h30 (end of the semester - from 25/06/09)
- To understand the managerial principles of Supply Chain Management- To know the main trends and issues in the field of Supply Chain Management- To understand the interaction between Supply Chain Management and the principal functions of the company (marketing, strategy, finance, logistics)
BE78/A7 - The progress towards excellence : the tools, the fads, and the real way
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.
Best regards,
Nathalie Royer

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.
