Brief description

The IPAG Business School is somewhat different in comparison with most of the Business Schools in this ranking, as the Business School gives, amongst other programmes, the luxury brand management MBA. Graduating from the one full-year academic programme of IPAG gains students a Bac +5 diploma from a well-established business school that is accredited by the state. To be a graduate of IPAG is to master English, the language of business, and to have received a diploma from one of the partner institutions. The newest highlights are the renovation in California and the new campus in China.
