Cooperation between the University Jean Moulin and Burkina Faso
The cooperation results from a partnership developed in 2007 between the University of Ouagadougou and iaelyon School of Management to issue its Master’s degree in International Management. The program aims to train specialists in international management on the campus of the University of Ouagadougou. It is designed for students who wish to find out more about export processes or to understand more efficiently the mechanisms of international management in order to develop activities related to international management either in France or in their home country. Students who enroll in the program are mainly executives (managers in private companies or non-profit organizations, senior officials…) but the program is also open to students in pre-experienced training.
