The CEMS program consists of several compulsory elements: a blocked seminar, CEMS courses, a business project, an academic semester abroad, skills seminars and two foreign languages.
The CEMS program at SSE is only open to SSE students enrolled at the 4-year Master of Science Program (futurewise to students admitted to the Master's Program in Business and Economics) and to CEMS exchange students nominated by another CEMS school to study a semester at SSE.
