The COSI Master 2 aims to train young consultants (representing more than 90% of the positions held on graduation) and senior managers (remaining 10%) in Organization, Strategy and Information Systems.

The program brings together final-year students from engineering and business schools with graduates and high-potential university students (mostly economists) from M1 to train tomorrow’s consultants. This mix of scientific, academic and business backgrounds - combined with a broad international outlook - is appreciated by students and HR departments alike.

  • Develop problem-solving capacities and the ability to use analytical tools for decision-making
  • Acquire theoretical concepts and tools, and apply them in real-life cases
  • Increase their analytical skills through methodology courses and writing a Master’s thesis
  • Develop behavioral and interpersonal skills through an internship at a consulting firm

Graduates will be equipped to pursue careers as:

  • Consultants in “Top 10” international consulting firms
  • Consultants or executives in large firms and international institutions
  • Entrepreneurs
