Chers étudiants et participants,
Bienvenue à l’Ecole ! En rejoignant ICN Business School, vous intégrez une grande école française de
management, de standard international au sein de laquelle la pédagogie a été conçue de manière
fortement interactive.
A ICN, vous allez mettre en œuvre, à travers vos lectures et vos projets individuels et collectifs, une
méthode de travail propre au développement des connaissances, des savoir-faire et des expériences qui
vous distingueront dans votre future carrière.
Cela signifie que l’enseignement est construit sur la base d’un contrat pédagogique requérant de vous une
présence active aux différents cours et une préparation aux prérequis définis par les enseignants, ce qui
leur permettra de s’impliquer dans une relation pédagogique positive en accompagnant de près votre
progression.
Pour maximiser votre compréhension des enseignements et vos chances de succès, il est par conséquent
impératif de vous engager à être présents à vos cours pour bénéficier de la dynamique et des échanges qui
vous permettront de fixer durablement vos savoirs et de réussir vos examens.
Votre emploi du temps a été conçu en intégrant, parallèlement aux cours, des plages de temps
hebdomadaires libres destinées à votre travail personnel, à vos travaux de groupes, à la recherche de vos
stages nécessaires au développement de votre personnalité et de vos compétences professionnelles.
Acteurs de votre formation, vous devez aussi participer à la qualité de l’enseignement délivré à l’Ecole en y
apportant votre regard critique tout en vous comportant de manière citoyenne et respectueuse vis-à-vis de
la communauté académique.
Vous devez, en conséquence, donner votre avis, lors des évaluations des enseignements qui vous sont

l’amélioration continue de nos enseignements et dresserez un bilan de vos apprentissages.
Vous devez aussi veiller, durant votre vie à l’Ecole et dans toutes vos activités, à respecter l’ensemble des
acteurs (personnels administratifs et enseignants). Cela doit se traduire entre autres, par un comportement
responsable vis-à-vis de celles et ceux qui sont mobilisés autour de votre réussite.
Visons ensemble votre succès académique et professionnel, en prenant conscience de ces principes et en
vous engageant à les respecter.

Nancy/Metz, September 1st, 2017
Dear Students and Participants,
Welcome to the School! By joining ICN Business School, you are joining a French Business School of
international standard in which pedagogy has been designed to be highly interactive.
At ICN, you will implement, throughout your reading and individual as well as team projects, a work
method for developing knowledge, skills and experiences that will distinguish you in your future career.
This means that teaching is built on the basis of a learning agreement requiring you to actively participate
in different courses and prepare for prerequisites defined by the teachers. We expect a positive
pedagogical relationship between teachers and you, which will allow for closely accompanying your
progress.
To maximize your understanding of the teachings as well as your chances of success, it is therefore
imperative that you commit to being present in class and benefits from the class dynamics and the
intellectual exchanges that occur in class. These will allow you to put your knowledge to use and succeed in
your exams.
Your class schedule has been designed by integrating time for, in addition to courses, personal homework,
group work, searching for internships. All these activities are necessary to develop your personality and
your professional skills.
You must also participate in the quality of education delivered at the School by giving your constructive
criticism all the while behaving as respectful citizens with the academic community.
You should give your opinion by completing the required teaching evaluations that will be administered
online. As such, you will contribute to the continuing improvement of our teaching activities and take stock
of what you have learned.
You should also, both while at the School and in all of your activities, respect all staff (administrators and
teachers alike). This should among other things include responsible behavior towards those who are
present to ensure your success.
Let’s work together towards your academic and professional success, by being aware of these values and
committing yourself to respecting them.

Extrait du règlement pédagogique 2017-20181
Le règlement pédagogique est accessible sur MyICN : ICN Master / Programme Master / Prog. Grande Ecole – Règlements / Règlement d'examens Programme ICN Grande Ecole
2 - Organisation des études
2.1 Projet pédagogique
Le Programme Grande Ecole vise à former des futurs cadres généralistes en gestion, qui occuperont des postes à responsabilité dans tous types d’organisations, en France ou à l’étranger, et qui sauront s’adapter dans un environnement multidisciplinaire et multiculturel. Cette formation généraliste est enrichie par plusieurs éléments fondamentaux dans le programme :
- Une spécialisation dès la 2ème année : il s’agit d’une spécialisation fonctionnelle qui peut encore être approfondie par la poursuite d’études, par exemple dans le cadre d’un double-diplôme ;
- Une ouverture pluridisciplinaire : elle est encouragée par l’alliance ARTEM et par les activités pédagogiques liées, en particulier l’atelier ARTEM ;
- Une ouverture internationale : les étudiants sont amenés à passer un semestre à l’étranger dans le cadre d’un séjour académique ;
A l’issue de leur formation, les étudiants sont capables de :
- Analyser une situation complexe et en faire la synthèse pertinente ;
- Résoudre des problèmes complexes en élaborant une solution adaptée et éventuellement innovante ;
- Décider en collaborateur responsable et dans le respect des règles d’éthique ;
- Communiquer efficacement, aussi bien à l’écrit qu’à l’oral ;
- S’adapter et s’intégrer avec aisance dans en environnement pluridisciplinaire ou multiculturel ;
- Mettre à jour et d’étendre en permanence leurs connaissances et leurs compétences, y compris à d’autres domaines que la gestion ;
- Travailler en groupe et gérer leurs équipes en mode projet ;
2.2 Forme générale du Programme
Le Programme ICN Grande Ecole se déroule sur trois années (pour un accès en 1ère année). Une année optionnelle, dite « expériences », peut s’insérer à la demande de l’étudiant entre la 2ème et la 3ème année du programme. Le parcours minimal est de deux ans (accès en 2ème année) à trois ans (accès en 1ère année).
Un semestre est composé d’unités d’enseignements (UE). Chaque UE est affectée d’un nombre de crédits européens (ECTS – European Credit Transfer System). Un semestre équivaut à 30 ECTS et une année à 60 ECTS. Une UE est composée d’un ou plusieurs modules, affectés de coefficients.

2.3 Présentation des contenus
2.3.4 La troisième année
Au premier semestre, le tronc commun est complété par le choix de quatre modules (110 heures) qui terminent la route de spécialisation choisie par l’étudiant en 2ème année, pour un total de 200 heures. Les spécialisations sont programmées sur l’un des campus de l’école : Nancy, Metz, ou Nuremberg. Un module « Arts, Sciences, Business » et un module « électif » de 15 heures chacun, en libre choix, complètent le dispositif.
Expérience professionnelle : d’une durée de 5 à 6 mois, en France ou à l’étranger, cette expérience peut être réalisée au S6 (ou au S5 en cas de séjour académique programmé au S6). Elle peut prendre la forme d’un stage, dans le respect de la réglementation en vigueur, ou de tout autre contrat de travail bipartite. Les objectifs sont identiques à ceux décrit dans la partie « année expériences ». Pour faciliter l’insertion professionnelle des étudiants réalisant un séjour académique au S6, un stage de fin d’études peut-être réalisé au retour du séjour en université partenaire, pourvu que la durée totale des stages n’excède pas la limite légale.
Expérience académique : séjour académique à l’étranger en université partenaire, d’une durée minimale d’un semestre, au S5 ou au S6. Des séjours annuels sont possibles dans le cadre d’un double-diplôme.
En cas de séjour académique semestriel en université partenaire programmé au S6, les modules du S6 sont transférés au S5, et l’étudiant est autorisé à réaliser une expérience professionnelle durant ce semestre S5, avant son départ en université partenaire.
2.3.5 Accès aux modules
L’accès aux modules choisis (notamment les modules de spécialisation, les modules et ateliers ARTEM) peut être limité par des contraintes et des critères de sélection portés à la connaissance des étudiants au moment de l’inscription aux modules (un numerus clausus, des prérequis académique, un niveau académique minimal, la nécessité d’équilibrer les populations des trois écoles dans chaque atelier).
Pour chaque module au choix, les étudiants sont invités à exprimer jusqu’à trois choix ordonnés selon leur préférence, conformément au calendrier publié chaque année.

La décision est prise par le directeur du programme après consultation des différents services académiques et administratifs. Elle est définitive et communiquée aux étudiants au plus tard une semaine avant le début des cours. Il n’existe aucune garantie que le choix définitif d’affectation corresponde aux trois choix initiaux formulés par l’étudiant.
2.3.6 Les stages
Tous les stages réalisés sont préalablement soumis à la validation par le tuteur pédagogique de la mission prévue. Ils sont suivis par un tuteur pédagogique, enseignant/chercheur de l’école, en relation avec le maître de stage en entreprise. Ils donnent lieu à la production d’un livrable par l’étudiant. Ces stages peuvent être réalisés dans des entreprises privées ou publiques, des laboratoires, en France ou à l’étranger.
Les périodes de stage sont précisées chaque année par des dates limites de début et de fin de stage. Plusieurs stages peuvent être réalisés au cours de chaque période, pourvu qu’ils respectent les durées minimales prévues, ainsi que la législation en vigueur.
Aucun stage ne peut débuter sans qu’une convention de stage valide ne soit établie et signée par l’école, l’entreprise d’accueil et l’étudiant. Tout étudiant qui contreviendrait à ces dispositions commet une faute et s’expose à des sanctions, décidées par le conseil de discipline devant lequel il sera convoqué.
2.3.7 Les séjours académiques
Au moins un séjour académique en université partenaire doit être réalisé (quitus international). Les semestres S4, S5 et S6 peuvent être remplacés par un séjour académique en université partenaire rapportant l’équivalent de 30 crédits ECTS.
Un accord pédagogique (learning agreement) est signé pour chaque séjour, et le contenu prévu dans ce séjour académique se substitue intégralement à celui du semestre prévu au présent règlement d’examens (S4, S5 ou S6).
L’évaluation du séjour est celle mise en place par l’établissement d’accueil. L’obtention des crédits ECTS prévus dans l’accord pédagogique entraîne la validation du séjour et la comptabilisation des crédits prévus au présent règlement, au titre du semestre durant lequel il a été réalisé.
Si le séjour académique est réalisé durant l’année expériences, les crédits obtenus ne sont pas transférables et ne peuvent pas être pris en compte pour l’obtention du diplôme. En revanche, sa réussite peut valider le quitus international.
L’étudiant doit se conformer aux dispositions du règlement d’examens de l’établissement d’accueil, sauf dispositions contraires établies dans l’accord pédagogique.
2.4 Interruption d’études et nombre maximal d’inscriptions
La scolarité peut être interrompue au plus une année universitaire sur l’intégralité du cursus, pour des raisons exceptionnelles sur demande de l’étudiant et après autorisation du Directeur du programme. L’étudiant n’est alors pas inscrit à l’école et ne peut bénéficier d’aucun service de l’établissement durant son interruption d’études (il ne peut notamment pas bénéficier d’une convention de stage).
Le nombre maximal d’inscription dans le Programme ICN Grande Ecole est de six années universitaires (3 années d’enseignement + 1 année «expériences» + 1 redoublement autorisé + 1 année supplémentaire exceptionnelle pour validation des UE et quitus non obtenus).
3 - Contrôle des aptitudes et des connaissances
3.1 Dispositions générales
3.1.1 Evaluation des modules et des UE
Pour chaque module, une ou plusieurs épreuves peuvent être programmées. Il est précisé que la présence et la participation des étudiants peut faire l’objet d’une évaluation sous forme de note, au même titre que les épreuves classiques. Une épreuve peut être de différents types : examen terminal écrit ; examen terminal oral ; contrôle continu, sous forme de dossier, épreuve écrite, ou projet. Un module est sanctionné par une note calculée à partir des notes des épreuves qui le constituent, selon les modalités d’évaluation précisées dans le syllabus du module. Une note éliminatoire

de 5/20 est fixée pour chaque module. En conséquence, tout module qui n’obtient pas une note strictement supérieure à 5/20 est invalidé et bloque l’obtention de l’UE à laquelle il est rattaché. Toute note communiquée reste provisoire jusqu’à sa validation par le jury.
Une UE est sanctionnée par une note obtenue en calculant la moyenne pondérée des notes obtenues à chaque module qui la constituent. Ainsi, les modules d’une même UE se compensent au sein de cette UE. Les UE sont affectées de crédits ECTS qui représentent leurs coefficients sur le semestre. Les crédits affectés à l’UE sont acquis dès lors que la moyenne obtenue est égale ou supérieure à 10/20 et qu’aucun module n’obtient une note inférieure ou égale à la note éliminatoire fixée.
Certains travaux peuvent être réalisés en binôme si le syllabus du module le prévoit. Dans ce cas, la contribution de chaque étudiant est appréciée de façon individuelle, conformément au syllabus du module, et toute décision de validation est également individuelle.
3.1.2 Evaluation des quitus
Le quitus représente une obligation de résultat sur une activité donnée. En cas de défaillance, l’activité prévue doit être réalisée à nouveau. L’examen et la validation définitive des quitus sont effectués au plus tard à la fin du semestre S6 par le jury de diplôme. La liste des quitus est la suivante.
3.1.2.1. Quitus « expérience à l’International ».
Ce quitus est validé dès lors qu’un séjour académique d’au moins un semestre a été réalisé et que l’étudiant a obtenu les crédits ECTS prévus dans l’accord pédagogique. Dans le cas d’un séjour réalisé durant l’année expériences, les crédits ne sont pas transférables dans le programme Grande Ecole.
Les étudiants suivant en France un parcours double-diplômant en deux ans, ou bien un parcours en apprentissage, sont exonérés du quitus « international », ainsi que les étudiants étrangers.
Les étudiants suivant en France un parcours double-diplômant en un an peuvent valider ce quitus par la réalisation d’une expérience professionnelle à l’étranger d’au moins cinq mois, validée par le jury.
3.1.2.2. Quitus « langue Anglaise ».
Ce quitus est acquis dès lors que le résultat obtenu à une épreuve externe TOEIC, TOEFL ou GMAT est supérieur ou égal au minimum publié en début d’année universitaire. Les scores à prendre en compte sont ceux correspondant à l’année universitaire durant laquelle l’examen est passé. Ils sont fixés par le directeur du programme, sur proposition du responsable du département Langues et Cultures Etrangères. Ils sont communiqués par voie électronique au plus tard un mois après la rentrée universitaire.
Le quitus « langue anglaise » est validé sur présentation et enregistrement par le service scolarité d’une copie des résultats de l’épreuve externe subie faisant apparaître un score supérieur ou égal au minimum exigé. Les étudiants de langue maternelle anglaise sont dispensés de ce quitus.
3.1.2.3. Quitus professionnel
Ce quitus garantit que l’étudiant a accumulé suffisamment d’expérience professionnelle durant son cursus, sous forme de stage ou d’autre forme de contrat (CDD, CDI, VIE, etc.). Il est acquis par la réalisation et la validation des activités obligatoires suivantes :
- Participation aux événements professionnels signalés organisés par l’école.
- Expériences professionnelles validées d’une durée totale de 9 mois sur l’ensemble du cursus, dont au moins :
o Une expérience courte d’une durée minimale de dix semaines.
o Une expérience longue d’une durée minimale de cinq mois.
Pour être éligible à la validation du quitus professionnel, et quelle que soit la forme du contrat retenue, l’expérience professionnelle doit avoir fait l’objet, par l’intermédiaire du tuteur pédagogique de l’étudiant :
- d’une validation préalable de la mission ; - d’une évaluation sur la base de livrables rendus par l’étudiant et l’entreprise d’accueil ;
15
Chaque expérience professionnelle est évaluée individuellement. Sa validation repose sur l’obtention d’une note supérieure ou égale à 10/20 (calculée à partir de l’évaluation du livrable remis par l’étudiant et de l’appréciation du responsable en entreprise, pour laquelle la note correspondante doit être au moins égale à 10/20 afin de valider l’expérience).
Le quitus est validé en fin de cursus si la moyenne de toutes les évaluations des expériences professionnelles est supérieure ou égale à 10/20.
En cas d’échec, une nouvelle expérience longue probante sera exigée.
3.1.2.4. Quitus mémoire de fin d’études
L’exercice du mémoire de fin d’études (MFE) est incontournable. Ce quitus est obtenu automatiquement par la validation du MFE de 3ème année du Programme ICN Grande Ecole. Pour les étudiants suivant une formation en double diplôme, il est obtenu par équivalence avec un travail similaire réalisé dans la formation suivie. A défaut, un MFE répondant aux exigences du Programme ICN Grande Ecole doit être soumis et validé par l’étudiant. Le MFE peut être réalisé en binôme, pourvu que la contribution de chaque étudiant puisse être identifiée. Chaque étudiant constituant le binôme reçoit une évaluation individuelle.
3.1.3 Sessions de rattrapage
Deux sessions d’examens terminaux sont organisées pour chaque module chaque année. Il n’est pas prévu d’épreuve de rattrapage pour le contrôle continu. Attention : certains modules sont évalués uniquement par le contrôle continu et ne font donc pas l’objet de rattrapage.
Au sein d’une UE non obtenue en 1ère session :
- les modules ayant une note égale ou supérieure à 10/20 sont conservés en 2ème session.
- les modules ayant une note inférieure ou égale à la note éliminatoire doivent obligatoirement être présentés en 2ème session.
- les modules ayant une note supérieure à la note éliminatoire et inférieure à 10/20 peuvent être présentés à nouveau en 2ème session. Il incombe alors à l’étudiant de communiquer par écrit au service de la scolarité la liste des modules qu’il souhaite présenter en 2ème session, au plus tard 8 jours après la proclamation des résultats.
Seules les notes obtenues en 2ème
session sont prises en compte, même si elles sont inférieures à
celles obtenues en 3.1.4 Gestion des absences
Toute absence, justifiée ou non, à une épreuve terminale entraîne la défaillance au module concerné et l’attribution d’une note de 0/20. Le module doit dès lors être présenté en 2ème session, si celle-ci est prévue. Toute absence à une épreuve terminale de 2ème session à laquelle l’étudiant est inscrit doit être justifiée auprès du directeur du programme. Si l’absence est reconnue justifiée, la note de 1ère session est conservée. Dans le cas contraire, la note de 0/20 est attribuée. Une absence justifiée à une épreuve non terminale peut donner lieu, sur décision du Directeur du programme et après avis du responsable de département auquel le module est rattaché, à la neutralisation de l’épreuve dans le calcul de la moyenne ou bien à la mise en place d’un contrôle spécifique. Une absence non justifiée à une épreuve non terminale donne lieu à la note de 0/20. Toute absence est réputée justifiée dès lors que :
- l’étudiant a averti le service de scolarité dont il dépend dès le début de son absence, - l’étudiant a présenté au service de scolarité, à son retour, sa justification d’absence.
Le justificatif authentique n’est recevable que s’il relève des seuls motifs suivants :
- la maladie, sur présentation d’un certificat médical,
- le décès d’un proche, sur présentation d’un certificat de décès,
- une autorisation d’absence délivrée par le directeur du programme.
16
3.1.5 Contrôle des présences
Conformément au règlement intérieur, la présence aux cours est obligatoire. Un contrôle est effectué à chaque cours et à chaque examen par une liste d’émargement. Toute absence non justifiée peut donner lieu à convocation de l’étudiant devant le conseil de discipline.
3.1.6 Discipline des épreuves
Les étudiants doivent se conformer au règlement général des évaluations. Les dispositions du paragraphe 1.1.3 s’appliquent. Pour être admis en salle d’examen, chaque étudiant doit pouvoir justifier de la conformité de son inscription administrative à l’école en présentant une carte d’étudiant en cours de validité.
3.1.7 Consultation des copies par les candidats
Les copies d’examen sont des documents administratifs à caractère nominatif. Elles doivent être communiquées aux candidats qui le demandent dans un délai raisonnable, et uniquement après la proclamation par le jury des résultats définitifs. Ce droit d’accès s’exerce par consultation directe des copies sur place et en présence du professeur correcteur. Ce droit n’est ouvert aux candidats qu’en ce qui concerne leurs propres copies, et uniquement si la note obtenue est inférieure à 10/20.
Seules les notes définitives attribuées par le jury sont officiellement communicables. En revanche, les notes provisoires proposées par les correcteurs sont considérées comme des documents inachevés et sont donc non communicables.
3.1.8 Conservation et archivage des copies par l’administration
Les copies d’examen sont des documents produits par les candidats dans le cadre du processus administratif de délivrance de diplôme. Elles appartiennent donc à l’école en tant que support matériel de la composition du candidat.
Les copies sont conservées pendant un an après publication des résultats.
3.2 Condition de passage en semestre et année supérieurs
3.2.1 Règles générales de progression
Le passage d’un semestre impair vers un semestre pair est systématique. Le passage d’un semestre pair vers un semestre impair est prononcé par le jury chaque année à l’issue de la 1ère ou de la 2ème session d’examens du semestre pair.
Si toutes les UE de l’année ne sont pas validées, le jury prononce soit un redoublement, soit une non-autorisation de poursuivre la scolarité.
3.2.2 Redoublement
Le jury prononce un redoublement annuel ou semestriel. Sur la période considérée, toutes les UE sont invalidées : l’étudiant est tenu d’assister à l’ensemble des cours et à se présenter à tous les examens de la période.
En cas de redoublement semestriel, le semestre validé de l’année universitaire doit obligatoirement être consacré à une expérience professionnelle de cinq à six mois, possiblement sous la forme d’un stage, ou par une autre activité préalablement validée par le directeur du programme.
Un seul redoublement est possible sur la totalité du Programme Grande Ecole.
3.2.3 Non autorisation à poursuivre la scolarité
A l’issue d’une année universitaire et en cas de non validation d’un grand nombre d’UE, le jury peut décider de ne pas autoriser la poursuite d’étude. En fin de cursus, au-delà du nombre maximal d’inscriptions autorisées et en cas de non validation de tous les quitus et UE prévus au présent règlement, le jury prononce la non autorisation à poursuivre la scolarité.

Extract from academic regulations 2017-20182
Academic regulations are accessible on MyICN : ICN Master / Programme Master / Prog. Grande Ecole – Règlements / Règlement d'examens Programme ICN Grande Ecole
ICN Master Grande Ecole Degree : Organization of Study Academic objectives
The ICN Master Grande Ecole Degree sets out to train generalist senior managers. They will hold positions of responsibility in all types of organization, whether in France or in the international community and they will be able to adapt to multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural environments. The generalist training is complemented and enriched by the addition of several basic features:
- A special study/major in year 2: this is a study of a specialist function within the organization, and may be extended with further study, for example by following a double degree program,
- A multi-disciplinary dimension: this is provided by the ARTEM alliance, in particular the learning activities associated with the ARTEM workshops,
- An international dimension: students are required to spend a semester abroad on a program of academic study.
On successful completion of their training, students are able to:
- Analyze a complex business situation and perform an appropriate assessment,
- Resolve complex problems with an appropriate and in many cases innovative solution,
- Make decisions as socially responsible managers,
- Communicate efficiently, in both written and oral modes,
- Adapt to and become part of a multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural team and environment, with ease and confidence,
- Update and extend their knowledge and skills, including in areas other than management, and
- Show competence and skill in team working and project management.
General structure of program The ICN Master Grande Ecole Degree, for first year entrants, is a three year program with an optional 4th gap or ‘Experience’ year, on student’s request. The gap year comes between year 2 and year 3. Minimum presence on the program is therefore two years for year 2 entrants and three years for year 1 entrants.
A semester is made up of ‘Teaching units’ (Unités d’Enseignements or UE). Each UE carries a certain number of European credits, called ECTS (ECTS – European Credit Transfer System). One semester’s work earns 30 ECTS and therefore one year earns 60 ECTS. One UE is made up of modules and these may have different weightings.

Program content
Year 3
During the first semester of year 3 (S5), the Core course (Tronc commun) is complemented by the addition of four modules (110 hours) to complete the field of specialization chosen by students during year 2, making a total for this of 200 hours. Specializations/Majors take place at Nancy, Metz, or Nuremberg ICN campus. Two hours modules called ‘Arts, Sciences, Business’, and ‘elective course’, chosen by the student, complete the year 3 program.
Professional experience: 5-6 months of professional experience in France or abroad (with the same objectives and conditions as the internship completed during the ‘Experience Year’). The experience may be carried out during either of the two semesters of the year, depending on the choice of activity during S5 (cf ‘Academic Experience’ below). It can be an internship, or any other form of contract. Moreover, to smooth the path into work for students who did an Academic Study course in S6, a long ‘end of studies’ professional experience may be completed on return from the partner university, in compliance with regulatory rules.
Academic Experience: a semester-long training program as part of a university exchange scheme. When it is a semester-long course, it may be carried out in either semester 1 or semester 2. A year-long course is possible, for the award of a double degree.
In cases where the International Study Course was completed in semester S6, all S6 modules are transferred to semester S5. Students may complete a professional experience in the semester S5.
Admission onto the modules
Admission to the modules, (especially the majors/special subjects, and the ARTEM modules and workshops) may be limited because of criteria which will be pointed out to students at the time of registration. The criteria might include: numbers limitations, learning pre-requisites, minimum academic levels, or the need to balance the numbers of students from the three participating Schools in each workshop.
For each optional module, students are asked to give three choices, in order of preference and depending on the timetable and options available each year.
The decision as to the allocation of students to modules is made by the Program Director after consulting the Academic Departments and Administrative Services involved. The decision becomes final and is communicated to students at least one week before the start of classes. There can be no guarantee that the final allocation of students to modules will match exactly the initial choices made by the students.

Internships
Internships are accompanied by an academic tutor, who is a lecturer/researcher at the School. All internships’ missions must be approved by the tutor, who works in partnership with an internship supervisor based in the company. Internships may be carried out in public or private companies or organizations, or in research laboratories, and may be in France or abroad. They end with the writing of an internship deliverable by the student.
The dates of the beginning and the end of the internship will be published each year. Several internships may be carried out during the internships period, in compliance with regulatory rules, provided that together they complete the required minimum of experience in companies.
No internship must commence without an internship agreement signed by the School, the student and the host company. Any student who contravenes this regulation is committing a fault and is liable to sanctions. These will be decided by the Discipline Committee, before which the student concerned will be summoned to appear.
Academic study periods abroad
Students must complete at least one academic stay in a partner university. This requirement is called the International Quitus. The period available for study outside France extends from the second semester of year 2 through year 3, for students on the ICN Master Grande Ecole Degree course. A learning agreement must be signed for each study period abroad. The assessment and grading of the stay is determined by the host university. The number of ECTS credits obtained during the stay and stipulated in the learning agreement (between 30 and 120 credits) will determine whether the stay is validated and whether the credits satisfy the requirements of the regulations governing the course.
If the academic study period abroad is carried out during a semester normally reserved for ICN classes, it replaces the ICN semester totally. The student must comply with all the Examination Regulations pertaining at the host university, unless arrangements to the contrary have been included in the learning agreement signed by both institutions.
If the academic study period abroad is carried out during a gap year, no credits may be transferred to the ICN Master Grande Ecole Degree.
Interruption of studies and maximum number of registrations The study program may be interrupted at the most for one university year over the whole of the program. This must be for exceptional reasons explained in writing to the Program Director who will then give approval or not. If approval is given and studies are interrupted, the student is no longer registered as a student at the ICN Business School and may not make use of any of the services or other advantages of ICN registration during the period of interruption. In particular the student cannot enjoy the benefits of an internship agreement.
The maximum number of registrations on the ICN Master program is therefore 6 academic years (3 years teaching + 1 ‘Experience’/gap year + 1 approved re-take year + 1 exceptional additional year to validate any uncompleted Teaching Units (UE) or uncompleted Quitus).
Assessment of skills and knowledge
General arrangements
Grading of modules and teaching units (UE)
For each module, one or more tests or examinations may be set to test skills and knowledge acquired. It is important to note that students’ presence and participation in classes may also be graded, in addition to the classic forms of examination. Examinations may take different forms : a final written examination, a final oral examination, continuous or periodic assessment, submission of a dossier, written tests or projects. A module is assessed using a grade which is calculated on the basis of the smaller tests which take place during the module. The grading system for each module will be indicated in the syllabus for the module. For each module there is an elimination grade of 5/20. Consequently each module for which the student does not achieve a grade higher than 5/20 is considered not only as a fail, but it also means that the total Teaching Unit (UE) of which it forms part is also a fail. Note that all grades which may be communicated to students by the lecturer concerned are provisional until they are ratified by the Examination Board.
A Teaching Unit (UE) is assessed using a grade obtained by calculating the weighted average of the grades for each of the modules within it. Hence the modules within a Teaching Unit can compensate for each other, i.e. a high grade in one module may balance a low grade in another in the same Teaching Unit. Teaching Units are also allocated ECTS credits
20
which represent the volume of work completed during the semester. Students are awarded the credits for each Teaching Unit if the grade achieved is equal to or higher than 10/20 and no module has been graded at less than the eliminatory grade of 5/20
Certain assignments may be carried out by pairs of students, if this is clearly stipulated in the syllabus. In this case the contribution of each of the students in the pair will be graded separately as indicated in the syllabus, and any decision concerning the pass or fail of the module will also be an individual one for each team member.
Assessing the Quitus
A Quitus is a compulsory requirement to show achievement or performance in a particular activity. If this achievement is not demonstrated, the activity will not be validated and must be carried out again. The assessment and final decision (pass or fail) for the different quitus by the Examination Board must be carried out by the end of Semester S6. The list of quitus is given in the paragraphs below.
‘International Experience’ Quitus.
As a compulsory part of their program of study, students must carry out and pass a semester of academic study or a double degree program in a partner university. The validation (pass or fail) of this international quitus will be based on the ECTS credits obtained. This will be written into the agreement between ICN and the partner institution. ECTS credits obtained during a gap year are not taken into account in the ICN Master Grande Ecole.
Students following a two year double degree program, students on apprenticeship schemes, and international students are exempt from the International Quitus requirement.
Students following a one year double degree program may complete a five months professional experience abroad to validate the international quitus.
‘English Language’ Quitus.
The English Language Quitus is passed when the grade obtained in the external tests of English language competence TOEIC, TOEFL or GMAT is equal to or higher than the minimum published at the start of each academic year. The scores which are used in assessment are those for the academic year when the test is taken. These are determined by the Program Director on the recommendation of the Head of Department of Foreign Languages and Cultures. They are published on the internet site at the latest one month after the start of the academic year.
The English Language Quitus is validated when a copy of the results of the external test, showing a score equal to or higher than the minimum required, is submitted to the Program Office. Students whose mother tongue is English are exempt from this Quitus.
Professional Quitus
The Professional Quitus guarantees to future employers that students have acquired sufficient professional experience during their learning process, particularly by way of compulsory internships, or any other form of contract. Students obtain the quitus by successfully completing the following activities:
- participating in the professional events organized by the ICN Business School,
- completing periods of professional practice totaling 9 months out of the full course of study, including at least :
o a short professional experience of a minimum of 10 weeks, and
o a long professional experience of a minimum of 5 months.
To be eligible to the professional quitus, whatever the contract, the experience must:
- be approved by the academic tutors, who validates the mission; - be assessed by the academic tutors, and the Company supervisor, based on required deliverables;
Each professional experience is assessed and graded individually. They are successfully completed when students obtain a grade equal to or greater than 10/20 (based on the deliverable presented by the student and graded by the ICN academic tutor, and an assessment by the Company supervisor, which must also be a minimum of 10/20 for the internship to be considered as being successfully completed).
The quitus is validated at the end of studies if the average of the grades for all the periods of professional experience is equal to or greater than 10/20.
If this is not the case, the student is required to complete another long experience.
21
Quitus for Final Year Dissertation
The Final Year Dissertation (Mémoire de Fin d’Etudes or MFE) is a further compulsory requirement of the Master program. This quitus is obtained when students successfully complete their year 3 dissertation. Students who follow a double degree program are exempt from this requirement at ICN since they need to complete a similar assignment for their second degree. If this is not the case, students must submit an ICN dissertation. The ICN dissertation may be a two-person team assignment, on condition that the contribution which each student makes can be identified and graded individually. In other words each student obtains an individual grade for the team dissertation.
Re-take or re-sit examinations
Each year two examination sessions are arranged for each course module. There are no re-take sessions for modules assessed by continuous or periodic assessment schemes. Note therefore that some modules are assessed by continuous assessment and there is therefore no opportunity for students to re-sit or re-take them.
In each Teaching Unit (UE) not passed at the first session of examinations,
- modules obtaining a grade equal to or greater than 10/20 are validated and held over until the end of the second session,
- modules obtaining a grade equal to or lower than the eliminatory grade of 05/20 must compulsorily be re-taken for the second session of examinations,
- modules obtaining a grade higher than the eliminatory grade of 05/20 but less than the pass grade of 10/20 may be taken again at the second session of examinations. In this case it is the responsibility of the students to communicate in writing to the Program Office those modules which they wish to re-take in the second session. This must be done at the latest 1 week after the publication of first session results.
Only grades obtained during the 2nd session of examinations will be taken into consideration by the Examination Board, even if they are lower than those obtained at the 1st session.
Absence from examinations
Any absence from an examination, whether it is justified or not, will automatically mean that the module is failed and the grade of 0/20 will be entered. In this case the module examination must be taken at the second session of examinations, if indeed a second session is programmed. Any absence from a second session examination for which the student is registered, must be justified in writing to the Program Director. If the absence is considered to be justified, the grade for the first session examination will be retained and considered by the Examination Board. If the absence is not felt to be justified, a fail grade of 0/20 will be entered. A justified absence from an assessment other than a final examination may, if this is approved by the Program Director in consultation with the Head of Academic Department to which the assessment belongs, lead either to the assessment being omitted in the calculation of the average, or to a special assessment or assignment being set. Any unjustified absence from an assessment other than a final examination will result in the fail grade of 0/20 being entered for the student. An absence is considered to be justified if:
- the student informs the Program Office concerned at the beginning of the absence, and - the student communicates to the Program Office in writing the reason for his/her absence as soon as he/she
returns.
The only reasons which are considered as justification for absence from an examination are the following:
- sickness, in which case a doctor’s note or medical certificate must be presented to the Program Office,
- the death of a close member of the family, in which case a copy of the death certificate must be presented,
- permission to be absent from the examination, granted by the Program Director.
Attendance at classes and seminars
As stipulated in the Internal Regulations, presence at classes is compulsory. A control of student presence at classes is carried out at the beginning of each class and each examination when students must sign the attendance sheet. Any absence from class which is not justified may give rise to the student(s) concerned being summoned to appear before the Disciplinary Committee.
Behavior during examinations
Students must behave in compliance with the General Regulations on Examinations. The measures outlined in paragraph 1.1.3 are the relevant ones here. For students to be admitted into the examination rooms, they must prove that they are correctly registered administratively as students of ICN Business School and show their current, valid student card.
22
Students’ right to see their corrected examination scripts
Examination scripts are named administrative documents. They may be consulted by students who ask to do so within a reasonable time, and only after the final results have been confirmed and published by the Examination Board. Students may see their examination papers only on School premises and in the presence of the lecturer who graded them. Students may only see their own scripts and only if the grade is lower than the pass grade of 10/20.
Only the grades which have been finally approved by the Examination Board can be communicated to students. The initial grades allocated by the lecturer who graded the paper are held to be provisional and the full grading process is considered to be incomplete until the grades are confirmed by the Examination Board. Consequently the initial provisional grades are not to be communicated to the students.
Archive recording of student examination scripts
Students’ examination scripts (papers) are considered to be administrative documents contributing to the School’s responsibility for awarding degrees. They are therefore the property of the School and as such they are evidence of the students’ performance and justification for the award of degrees.
Examination papers are kept by the administrative services for one year after publication of the results.
Progression from one semester/year to the next
General rules of progression
Progression from semester 1 to semester 2 in any given year of study is systematic. Progression from semester 2 to semester 1 of the following year is decided by the Examination Board each year following the results of the first and second sessions of the semester 2 examinations.
If all the Teaching Units (UE) are not successfully completed, the Examination Board can recommend either that the student re-takes the unsuccessful academic year, or discontinues the program of study.
Re-taking a semester or a year
The Examination Board may recommend that a student re-takes a semester or a full academic year. If, over the semester or the year under consideration, all the Teaching Units have been failed, the student is required to attend all the classes and sit all the examinations and other assessments during the re-take semester or year.
If the student is required to re-take the failed semester, the semester which was successfully completed now has to be filled as a 5 or 6 month approved professional experience.
Each student is allowed one re-take only over the whole period of study for the Grande Ecole Degree.
Not permitted to proceed to the next stage of the Degree course
In cases where a significant number of Teaching Units are not validated by the Examining Board at the end of the academic year, the Board may decide that the student(s) concerned may not proceed to the next year and must terminate their studies. At the end of the course, if the student has not validated all the quitus and Teaching Units required by the present regulations, and has reached the total number of re-registrations (see above §3.2.2.), the Examination Board will recommend that the student leaves the course without obtaining the Degree.

Course description and Teaching Methods
Through computer simulation, we will place you into a very realistic international business setting where you will run a company for two years in compressed time (eight rounds of decision-making). You will work closely with a team of fellow students to manage a highly complex and integrated business. Personal leadership and strong interpersonal skills will be necessary to succeed. Throughout the exercise, you will receive guidance and feedback from the instructor. He will challenge your business thinking and help you to become a good team player and business manager.

This course is a transformational experience. You will learn what it’s like to compete in the fast-paced, competitive market where customers are demanding and the competition is working hard to take away your business. In the simulation platform, you start up and run your own company, struggling with business fundamentals and the interplay between marketing, operations, finance, and accounting. You are given control of a simulated business and must manage its operations through several decision cycles. Repeatedly, you must analyse the situation, plan a business strategy to improve it and then execute that strategy out into the future. You face great uncertainty from the outside environment and from your own decisions. Incrementally, you learn to skill fully adjust your strategy as you discover the nature of your real-life decisions, including the available options, linkages to other parts of the business, conflicts, tradeoffs and potential outcomes.
Learning objectives
The specific goal of this program is to develop your performance and entrepreneurial management skills by giving you an integrated perspective of the entire business operation.

Course description and Teaching Methods
Cours basés sur l’étude des principes et des modes de gouvernance d'entreprise, des risques juridiques et managériaux dans les organisations, qui engagent la responsabilité sociale de l'entreprise, les responsabilités juridiques et morales des acteurs. Teaching Methods : Les exposés théoriques, les lectures à réaliser en amont du cours, les visionnages de vidéos, les préparations d'études de cas réels avant chaque séance, les débats en cours et les témoignages d’expérience par des professionnels du droit et de la gestion ont pour objectif d’inciter les étudiants à réfléchir sur : - les enjeux liés à la gouvernance d'une organisation, ses principes, ses modalités, son cadre juridique, - les dilemmes éthiques qu’ils vont rencontrer dans l’exercice de leur profession, - comment le manager / le dirigeant / l’entreprise engagent-ils leur responsabilité morale et / ou juridique ? - comment concilier efficacité économique, contraintes juridiques, soucis éthiques, sociaux et environnementaux ?
Content
L'accent est mis d’une part sur le rôle de la gouvernance d'entreprise, d'autre part sur la « responsabilité sociale de l’entreprise » (RSE), concept en très forte corrélation avec les préoccupations en termes de développement durable et de respect des intérêts et attentes légitimes des parties prenantes de l’entreprise. D’autre part, l’accent est mis sur la responsabilité juridique (pénale, sociale, environnementale) qui pèse sur les décideurs dans l'entreprise. Enfin, au-delà de la responsabilité juridique définie par le droit, se trouve le champ de l’autonomie morale, dont fait usage l’acteur économique dans ses prises de décisions engageant sa responsabilité, non plus « juridique » mais « morale » ou « éthique ». Juristes, chercheurs en management, consultants, professionnels d'entreprises, administrateurs de petites et grandes entreprises, viendront vous parler des modes et principes de gouvernance, de l'activisme actionnarial, de la Corporate Social Responsability, de la Business Ethics, du néo-paternalisme, des chartes éthiques, des systèmes d'alerte, des risques de facilitation et de corruption notamment à l'international, des failles juridiques en matière de responsabilité environnementale, du droit pénal, etc. Récits d'expériences, études de cas, exposés théoriques et conceptuels, animeront ce module.
Learning objectives
Dégager les caractéristiques de l’environnement du problème, mobiliser les concepts et cadres théoriques utiles pour le problématiser et le résoudre ; Faire preuve d’esprit critique pour sélectionner les éléments saillants d’un problème et les synthétiser de façon critique et argumentée. Imaginer, le cas échéant, une solution innovante ; Vérifier la pertinence d’une solution en prenant en compte toutes les facettes du problème, de son environnement et des contraintes associées ; Connaître les cadres juridiques vus en cours et dans les documents distribués ; Identifier les situations à risques et évaluer les conséquences d’une démarche non éthique ; Prendre des décisions après une analyse scrupuleuse de leurs conséquences et être capable de les justifier ; Etre capable d'évaluer les conséquences de ses actes sur les différentes facettes de son environnement.

Yet, we start with a slight overview of the pricing tools. Next, the notion of Structured Financed is discussed and we analyze the vehicles that are used in the structuring process. We also analyze the products used in the structuring process, namely, different types of swaps, CDOs and so on. We then develop pricing approaches that enables us to evaluate the price credit risk. Finally, we analyze the risks inherent in Structured Finance vehicles. The teaching approach consists in short theoretical presentations followed by in-class exercises on the board.
Content
The course provides students with an in-depth understanding of the way Financial vehicles are structured. Different Structured financial vehicles are analysed. We start with the global approach and advantages of Structured Finance. We analyse different Kinds of swaps and how they can be used as a risk management tool. We then analyse credit correlation products. The second part focuses on the pricing of credit risk products. We start with risk bonds. We analyse the structural and reduced form models. Finally, we learn how to analyse the risks and price of a CDO structure.
Learning objectives
The student should be able to understand credit risk models
The student should be able to price a risky bond
The student should be able to devise an ideal Financial Structure

Course description and Teaching Methods
The course builds on the second year course on Valuation of Financial products and the course in Structured Finance and Advanced Valuation. The special focus is the modelling as well as the measurement of risks. We also discuss the setting up of a risk management process and how, eventually, risk management can be used as a Strategic Management tool. Indeed, as Economic Capital of Financial Institutions is dependent on the risk measure that is used as well as the aggregation properties, Financial Institutions can increase their value by reducing the aggregate economic capital. The course consists of short theoretical developments on the board followed by joint exercises on the board.
Content
The course provides students with an in-depth understanding of the way Financial vehicles can implement and risk measurement and management approaches. We introduce the notion of Value at Risk and its sister measures, namely, Expected Shortfall. The adequacy of the risk measure being dependent on the volatility process, we analyse different volatility modelling approaches. We discuss so-called ARCH processes. Different statistical approaches are developed: Model building, Historical simulation. WE the develop further the Credit VAR approach. We also analyse more exotic types of risks, such as operational, liquidity and Model risk. Finally, we close by analysing Economic and RAROC for Financial Institutions.
Learning objectives
The student should be able to understand the different types of risk measures The student should be able to model and measure risks with different types of measures The student should distinguish the different types of risk The student should be able to understand the way risk can improve the Financial Institution valuations

Course description and Teaching Methods
The recent sub-prime crisis has shed light on the insufficient understanding of the international financial system as well as flaws in the efficient market hypothesis. A proper understanding of the international financial architecture presumes a detailed understanding of the political, legal and financial environments as well as their interconnectedness. Moreover, the standard paradigm of rationality in economics and finance is difficult to reconcile with the complexity of the financial industry. This course draws on different fields of research to develop a consistent and broad understanding of the Financial Architecture. We analyze the optimality of the Financial Sector through case studies.
Content
We start by critically discussing the notion of rationality in economics as well as psychology and neuro-economics. We analyse why the assumption is so crucial and why it is inconsistent with the structure of the Finance Industry. We then discuss the Law & Finance literature and how financial regulation is impacted by behavioural aspects. We analyse the different legal vehicles that are used in the finance industry, as well as the potential legal arbitrages that are at play. Finally we analyze the different EU regulations concerning Financial Institutions, namely Banks, Funds, Shadow Banks and how they intereact.
Learning objectives
Students should develop an understanding of the financial vehicles that are regularly mentioned in international political discussions. Students should also develop an understanding the main topics in Law & Finance. Finally, students should learn to critically analyse the main paradigm in Finance in order to question economists’ assumptions during negotiations. The course is also a good introduction to research topics in Law and Finance.

Michel VERLAINE S5_4 3 30 h ENG
Course description and Teaching Methods
The aim of this course is to study tha trading mechanisms in financial markets, namely, the institutions, the economic principles underlying the institutions as well as the statistical properties of asset prices given the trading rules. In the standard microeconomic approach the equilibrium is supposed to occur rapidly and without any intermediairies. In real life and in Financial Markets notably, trades are done through intermediaries, namely dealers, brokers and other institutions. The aim is to understand stock price movements and eventual implications in terms of efficiency. The course consists in theoretical developments followed by exercises.
Content
The course starts by analyzing financial markets and the market making process. The market makers typically need to keep a certain inventory that they can offer to potential buyers. This leads us to consider Inventory models and their role in the determination of the bid-ask spread. Still, any trade done with counterparty exposes the dealer to asymmetry of information as the seller or buyer might have better information than the dealer. We thus analyse Information-based models and how they impact the price formation process. We then move by analyzing the strategic trade models in the face of informed as well as uninformed traders. The synthesis of all those models helps us grasp the relationship between information and the trading process. Finally, we analyse the relationship between liquidity and markets.
Learning objectives
Students should develop an understanding the main institutions involved in trading process. Students should be able to understand the price formation process in financial markets Students should be able to analyse the role of information on liquidity.

The Dark Side of Human Resource Management < 20%
Leader Period Credits Volume Language
Krista FINSTAD-MILION S5_2 4 30h ENG
Course description and Teaching Methods
Many human resource management courses cover ideal or best practices when managing people and address issues which are perceived as positive or contributing to HRM. Far less deal with the darker or down side of managing people and the destructive consequences on people and organisations. This module aims at providing an answer to this observation, inviting students to critically think and debate the causes, processes and consequences of HRM that have a negative effect on organisations and people within them. New ways of looking at situations typically perceived as dark are considered as well as solutions to mitigate the potentially destructive consequences. The module is based on student-led presentations, interactive discussions, guest speakers, role-playing, e-data bank research and videos which capture what is typically perceived as the dark side of HRM.
Content
This module is organised around common dark HR challenges faced by small and large organisations operating both locally and internationally - Power and office politics in the workplace - Employer-union conflict - Shirking work and absenteeism - Office bullying, harassment and stress - Suspicion and distrust - Personality dysfunctions and incompetence - Social irresponsibility and developing countries
Learning objectives
At the end of the course, the student should have acquired: ► an understanding of the causes and processes behind destructive HRM practices ► conceptual, critical and analytical abilities in the examination of the downside of certain HRM practices and their consequences. The student should also be able to: ►identify and explain why some HRM practices are destructive from a people and organisational point of view ►effectively use cause and process analysis to provide recommendations from a people and organisational point of view.

Course description and Teaching Methods
This course focuses on providing a global understanding of how innovation is organised within companies but also on national and supra-national science and technology policies. It aims at training students to be able to solve complex issues related to (1) the organisation of innovation and human capital, (2) relationships with public research organisation, (3) national systems of innovation, and (4) how to transfer a technology on the market. Each topic is illustrated through example of specific technologies, fields or industries. Active participation of students is required in each session. Materials (PowerPoint presentations, articles, case studies, videos, etc.) will be available in advance on the intranet and must be read before each session. Each session is divided into two subsections. First, based on the reading of the class materials, basic concepts are discussed and clarified. They are then applied to case studies or articles and presented.
Content
The course is at the crossroad of organisation theory, sociology of science, and management of technology and innovation. It therefore tackles the basic structures of organisation and the capabilities required to organised innovation along with the challenges of multidisciplinarity. Then, at a more macro level, it focuses on the importance of science in innovation systems, the collaboration with companies, the barriers to develop an innovation and to transfer it to the market. Each session is illustrated by example and during the final session, a comparison is made between three different fields that present different dynamics and types of innovation.

Course Sequence and Homework Description
Lecturer : Angie Celaya Class participation: Students are not only required to attend every lecture but are expected to make informed contributions to class discussions and in-class activities. Attendance will be taken and missing more than three half-day-classes will result in an automatic reduction of a full point from your grade. Missing more than three classes will result in an incomplete grade. Group Presentation: Students will be separated into small groups, which will each be assigned an Arts or Entertainment company. The groups will research and analyze their companies, considering the crises and opportunities they have faced in the rapidly evolving media landscape. They will evaluate the companies’ strengths, weaknesses and visual communication approaches and discuss the strategic decisions that they came up with to deal with these challenges. Each group will give a 15-20 minute presentation to the class. Individual Paper: After the group presentations, students will write a follow-up assessment with their personal take on the companies they studied. They should not just restate the findings of their groups; they should comment and elaborate a visual proposal for the company. They should emphasize different perspectives or even contradict points made in the group report. Weekly Participation: In addition to the assigned readings, students will be expected to keep up-to-date with current developments in the entertainment industry. Each week students will be required to write a brief commentary on one or two articles they have read, with links to the articles. Students should also be prepared to comment on their articles in class if asked to do so. Note: The instructor will sometimes distribute current articles to the class. Students should write their commentaries on articles they have researched on their own and not on these distributed articles. The final project: This will be a written paper. The theme is the role of visual communication in a specific area related to the Art and Entertainment Industry, which includes sporting events, theme parks, theaters, museums, cinema, live music and art galleries. The paper should consist of 3 parts: (a) Part 1: a pertinent review of the literature in your planned area that discusses the role of visual communication and/or visual objects in general. When writing this section, be sure to mention the range of topics searched, your sources, and the parameters of your research (How far back in time did you go in your research? Was your research limited to one language?) (b) Part 2: identifying what you think are the major issues related to visual communication in your future area of work. (Some people may want to focus on three critical issues; others may prefer a top-ten list.) Whatever you choose, identify why these issues are important in these fields. (c) Part 3: A personal opinion of why you think visual communication is important (or not) and what effect it has on your field. This paper should take at least 6 full pages (double spaced, Ariel font size 10), and should demonstrate proper development and pertinent, insightful content that reflects a certain maturity in your understanding of the subject. You are encouraged to submit drafts of your paper early enough for me to comment upon and return to you.
