Progress Into a Business Career

INSEAD in collaboration with Sorbonne Université offers the Business Foundations Certificate (BFC) programme tailored for recent master or PhD graduates from the sciences, medicine, humanities, engineering and law.

The programme equips participants with a broad set of business and economics skills that optimally complement their graduate training. It also supports participants' transition to a business career and helps aspiring entrepreneurs to fulfil the goal of their own start-up by complementing their ideas with a solid foundation in business and leadership. The programme includes 16 on-campus modules, that will be on Fridays and Saturdays.

Registrations are still open to join the upcoming session of the Business Foundations Certificate (BFC) by INSEAD-Sorbonne, starting on 29 August 2025.

This 4-month program, taught in English, takes place on Fridays and Saturdays across the Jussieu and Fontainebleau campuses. It is designed for students from non-business backgrounds, offering solid foundations in management, strategy, finance, and entrepreneurship.

Why join the BFC?
- A gateway to the business world, tailored for academic and scientific profiles
- Top-tier teaching by INSEAD professors
- A scholarship covering at least 50% of tuition fees, automatically granted to students and graduates from Alliance Sorbonne institutions
