A degree from a business school in Europe can bring with it an international network of alumni.

English remains the language of international business, but programs abroad usually offer the opportunity to learn or study in a second or even third language, which can be an attractive asset to multinational firms. HEC Paris’ location, in the Paris-Saclay research and development cluster, provides added value students said. Azevedo, who trained as an engineer in Brazil, was able to do her externship with a researcher at a physics lab at the École Polytechnique, one of the nation’s top schools located near the HEC Paris campus. In that role, she raised money for a company developing propulsion systems for small satellites — an experience that helped lead her to a career in tech.
European MBAs also generally offer a shorter-time frame than the two-year programs that are standard in much of North America, with some programs taking as little as ten months. The shorter programs allow for less career and income interruption, while also saving tuition costs for most students.
