MercurIE professionalization program

Professionalization program in economic intelligence

MercurIE is one of the teaching responses of the EGE which allows the student in initial training "Economic Intelligence Strategy EIS" to understand the strategic axes developed by a company.

By team, students work for the benefit of a management of a large group, an SME or an actor in the public or parapublic sector to conduct a study that requires perfect manipulation of the methodology taught.

Over 8 months, one day per week, accompanied by a teacher from the School and executives from the partner company, the students redefine the theme of the study, set up a system of monitoring and collection of information, carry out the study with the meeting of experts and field operations (trade shows, visit?) and finalize the document with a set of recommendations to follow.

They must then support their work with a presentation within the department concerned.

This MercurIE program is much more than an internship since it gives students the opportunity to apply all or part of the taught program and develops collaborative work within prestigious structures such as Innovation Works of the EADS Group, R&D of EDF, the Strategy Department of GDF Suez, the IE Department of the Ministry of Ecology, the EI Department of Carrefour, the Security Department of the Canal Plus Group, ESA, Prometheus.

Since 2002, it has been ranked the best training in France in "Economic Intelligence" by the Eduniversal-SMBG Best Masters guide and 8th best world master in 2017 in " Masters in Business Intelligence, Knowledge and Security Management " (best-masters.com).

Christian Harbulot, the program director, received the prize for the best pedagogue in all training courses in 2011 at the Trophées de la Pédagogie.

Train the best experts in strategy and economic intelligence.

Who is the training course for?

The MBA Strategy and Economic Intelligence is aimed at students of universities, Business School, Engineer, IEP and professionals.

The reform of our pedagogy entered into force at the beginning of the 2015/2016 academic year. It is structured around three main principles:

• A restructuring of the seven course modules
• Greater consideration of individual work
• A dynamic learning of IE spread over the year in fourteen exercises.

The creation of a Business Development module reflects our desire to anchor part of the EGE's teachings in the issue of developing business competitiveness. We believe it is essential to train our students in information management methods adapted to the context of global competition. The module dedicated to analysis and methodology has a transdisciplinary vocation which makes it possible to combine the contributions of management, the sociology of organizations and EI itself.

Individual assignments now represent 30% of the overall mark. This change in assessment does not call into question the importance of group exercises but aims to better understand the evolution of knowledge acquisition.

The strength of the EMT today is its ability to give students real cases to deal with in different forms of exercise. Their number and their diversity position us today as the only training to teach EI by associating the production of knowledge, the control of the economic balance of power and the use of information technologies.

• Module 1: Understanding Business Intelligence
• Module 2: Geoeconomics and Globalization
• Module 3: Information Management and Knowledge Production
• Module 4: Analysis and methodology
• Module 5: Risk Management
• Module 6: Business Development and Economic Intelligence
• Module 7: Influence Operations

Since its creation in 1997, L'Ecole de Guerre Economique has established itself as the European benchmark for teaching in economic intelligence .

A key player in the French EI landscape, L'Ecole de Guerre Economique stands out for its permanent desire to promote EI .

Its alumni network is the largest and one of the most powerful in France in IE. The alumni association (AEGE) which brings together all of the School's graduates (initial training and continuing education) represents more than 1,700 active members .

Professional integration in EI trades is around 85%.

This figure alone illustrates the excellent reputation that EMT enjoys among companies and administrations.
