AN INTERNATIONAL DIMENSION AT THE HEART OF THE PROGRAMME


INTERNATIONAL FROM THE FIRST YEAR OF STUDY


From the very first year, students spend a full semester in Coventry, with the option of choosing the Parcours Franco-Chinois (PFC).

This unique program focuses on specific expertise in Europe-Asia exchanges. In partnership with Fudan University in Shanghai, students focus on international export, purchasing and distribution careers.

This Franco-Chinese program gives graduates a perfect command of Chinese and English. Right from the first year, students take intensive Chinese courses. This is followed by total immersion in the 3rd and 4th years of the Grande École program.

Studying at ICD has been an extremely rewarding experience for me.  As a result, I’ve become a more independent person, better organised and more open to the world around me.  Through my various study abroad periods in Germany, the USA and Ireland, I was able to discover new cultures and different ways of learning.  The course also equipped me with solid professional and soft skills that have been really useful during the start of my career in business.  To supplement the Marketing studies I did at ICD, I’ve now decided to take a specialist training course in UX design.
