The MAE Master in Sustainable Corporate Management (SCM), offered by the IAE NANCY School of Management (Université de Lorraine), is a 2-year program in management sciences that combines both theoretical and practical approaches. This Master’s program fosters a global, systemic understanding of business, equipping students with a comprehensive vision of key management fields within the context of a rapidly evolving, globalized economy. Emphasizing sustainability, it addresses critical issues such as technological advancements, environmental degradation, and the urgent need for ecological transition. The program prepares future leaders to drive sustainable business practices that align with the growing demands of social and environmental responsibility.

The Master's program is open to students who hold at least a bachelor's degree or an equivalent diploma of at least 180 ECTS. It also welcomes professionals in continuing education as well as master graduates. This program is specifically designed for those trained outside the field of management, including engineering, science, law, and human and social sciences. The SCM Master program provides a unique opportunity to enhance their existing expertise with a comprehensive management curriculum. This broadens their career prospects by equipping them with the cross-disciplinary skills needed to tackle the social, environmental, and business challenges of today.
