MSc in Health Management & Data Intelligence : Partners

The MSc in Health Management and Data Intelligence is the outcome of the partnership between Mines Saint Etienne, a renowned engineering school, and emlyon business school, one of Europe’s top business schools devoted to lifelong learning for entrepreneurial and international management.

The two institutions joined forces and created this program in response to the health industry’s need for future managers that will be able to master the specifics of operations disrupted by artificial intelligence impacts. With campuses in Lyon and Saint Etienne in Auvergne Rhône Alpes region, both institutions embody excellence in their domain, and foster an innovative learning environment for students.

The School hosts 8,900 students representing 121 nationalities in undergraduate and postgraduate programs, along with nearly 6,900 participants in executive education programs. The School counts seven campuses around the world: Lyon, Saint-Étienne, Paris, Casablanca, Shanghai, Bhubaneswar and Mumbai. It draws on a network of 190 international academic partners and leads a community of 35,700 alumni in 130 different countries.

The teaching model: early makers since 1872
emlyon's distinctive academic signature early makers molds learning into a lifelong endeavor to have an impact on the world and offers a real alternative in its environment. It sees learning as not only a transfer of academic knowledge but also a "course of learning experiences" that equips students to forge a constant link between thought and action: "doing to learn, learning to do".

Through these collective and individual learning experiences, emlyon has set out to train responsible managers capable of taking up the challenges of today and tomorrow. This general-interest calling lies at the heart of the school's identity and is written into its articles of association since July 2021 when it transitioned to the status of a benefit corporation.
