Faculty and Research at MBS
GUARANTEED EXCELLENCE OF A TOP-FLIGHT FACULTY
MBS deploys an ambitious research policy through its French and international professors and researchers, who are recognized in their different fields of research, contribute deep experience from leading academic and professional institutions and are motivated by the prospect of contributing to MBS’ Mission.
The MBS faculty drives knowledge creation in many ways (academic papers, publications, case studies, articles in professional journals, etc.), disseminating their research through various channels (peer-reviewed journals, print and audiovisual media, etc.).
The permanent faculty at MBS publishes more than a hundred articles a year in peer-reviewed journals referenced in the prestigious FT50 and ABS international lists, as well as the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) and FNEGE (Fondation Nationale pour l’Enseignement de la Gestion des Entreprises) lists. Over 40% of this output is published in tier-1 journals.
Research output covers all management science disciplines and is proactively aligned with our institution’s values (ethics, openness & diversity, global responsibility & performance).
In order to provide an effective and stimulating learning environment, MBS has adopted diverse and innovative teaching methods, drawing in particular on the flipped classroom approach and experiential learning (blended learning, design thinking, Lego approaches and serious games, to name just a few).
