Our programs
HEC Lausanne offers two Bachelor of Science, in Economics and in Management.
The first two years form a common study programme. The specialization occurs in the third year. Most holders of a Bachelor of Science in Management continue their studies with a Master’s degree.
The quantitative orientation of the two Bachelor programs is very strong: mathematics, statistics, accountability and information systems account for around two thirds of the teaching.
As of the start of the 2023/2024 academic year, HEC Lausanne will offer French-English bilingualism for its Bachelor's degree programs. Students will have complete flexibility to take courses in French, in English and even change language from one course to another.
