Is it still possible for MiM students to do an internship in France or elsewhere? If so, what could be the duration of the internship?
Yes, it is possible for MiM students to do an internship in France and most do choose to remain in Europe during their gap year and after graduation.
During the optional gap year, internships usually last 6 months. As for internships after graduation, it completely depends on the industry. In Finance for example, 97% of HEC students converted their internships to full-time job offers.
Could the MiM be paired with an apprenticeship program?
We offer an optional gap year between the first and second year of the program. Both the M1 and M2 are full-time so it is not possible to do an internship on the side.
What are the possibilities for students to get scholarships or financial aid?
All admitted students are automatically considered for the HEC Foundation Scholarship, which ranges from 3,000€ to 15,000€. Other scholarship and financial aid opportunities can be found on our website.
What job employability opportunities are there currently in France, especially during this COVID-19 pandemic?
The career support at HEC is exceptional and highly effective, regardless of whether it is provided online or in-person. There are countless big career events and the people from career development are always available to offer personal advice and guidance. Consequently, 99% of graduates are employed within 3 months and 8% launched their own company.
