Bachelor in Licence - Economie et gestion

This licence in Economie et gestion (economics and management) is offered by ICES - Institut Catholique de Vendee in La Roche-sur-Yon, France. The program covers the fundamentals of both disciplines, so coursework typically spans microeconomics, macroeconomics, accounting, corporate finance, marketing, and organizational management, supported by mathematics and statistics that build the quantitative skills needed for economic and business analysis. The combination of economics and management gives students a broad view of how markets function alongside how individual organizations are run, which suits students who are not yet certain which of the two fields they want to specialize in later. All coursework is delivered in French. This is a three-year bachelor's program that begins in September. Graduates of an economics and management licence typically continue toward a specialized master's degree in fields such as finance, marketing, human resources, or economics, since the licence generally functions as a broad academic foundation rather than a terminal professional qualification in most cases. Others move into entry-level roles in accounting, business administration, sales, or general management support within companies of various sizes. As a private Catholic institution, ICES situates its coursework within a particular institutional character, though the underlying disciplinary content of an economics and management licence follows the standard structure found across French universities. Based in La Roche-sur-Yon, a city in the Vendee department in western France, students in this program work through a broad business and economics curriculum across the three years, building skills applicable across a range of entry-level roles after graduation.
