EDHEC and King’s Business School Launch Joint Bachelor’s Degree in Business Analytics and AI
On 24 June 2025 in London, EDHEC Business School and King’s Business School announced the launch of a new dual Bachelor’s degree, starting in September 2026: the BSc in International Business Analytics & Management.
Amid growing geopolitical instability and rapid technological change, this four-year, English-taught program is designed to equip students with key 21st-century skills: intercultural intelligence, strategic thinking, analytical and technical expertise, and mastery of digital tools to help businesses transition toward more sustainable models.
A dual skillset and global outlook
Open to 80 students, the program will award a degree from both institutions and combine academic learning with immersive experiences and ten months of internships spread over the third and fourth years. Studies will take place across the two schools’ campuses in London and Lille.
The first two years in London will focus on the fundamentals of business, management, and data analytics, aligned with King’s Business School’s philosophy of business as a force for positive change. Students will benefit from King’s College London’s interdisciplinary environment and take part in co-curricular activities alongside students from other faculties. London itself will serve as an open-air classroom, through site visits, fieldwork, and expert talks spanning all sectors of the capital’s economy.
The final two years in Lille will allow students to specialize in areas such as finance, strategy, or marketing, based on their interests and career goals.
“This new program, unique in Europe, marks an important step in our longstanding partnership with King’s Business School,” said Emmanuel Métais, Dean of EDHEC Business School. “It offers students a rare combination of expertise in data, AI, and management, while giving them access to the exceptional ecosystems, alumni networks, and campuses of both institutions. Through this program, EDHEC reaffirms its mission to prepare students to lead meaningful transformation in business—for the common good.”
