IAE's History

The origin of IAE dates back to the 1950s. At the time, degrees in management were not available in French universities. In the United States, by contrast, economic growth is powered by batches of engineers and managers from the best business schools attached to universities. In the midst of reconstruction, France have a lack of managers while the Thirty Glorious begin.

In 1955, Gaston Berger, Director of Higher Education, Ministry of Education, created the Institute of Business Administration (IAE) in American style, to provide academic knowledge in management that complements the professional know-how and gather University and Business world. In the beginning, IAE were schools with a single diploma, “CAAE” - Certificate in Business Administration with a pioneering position on the "dual skills". This degree was designed to give management skills to engineers and graduate students of the faculties of Law, Letters and Sciences. Recognized degree, designed to be followed on a year, during the evening, is a “MBA à la française”. The teaching is based on the case method, innovative approach at the time. It has been for nearly 20 years, the common degree of most IAE in becoming “DESS CAAE” and continues today through the “MAE” (Master of Business Administration).

Status

Most of the IAE have a status of « institutes and schools belonging to Universities », just like the University Institutes of Technology as an example. Some are part of Faculties such as Faculty of Economics and Management.

The IAE Paris is the only independent IAE, it's a public establishment of an administrative nature linked to the Pantheon-Sorbonne University.

An alternative to private Business Schools

In 2012, Olivier Rollot, in Le Monde stressed the excellence of such Public Graduate School of Management being a real alternative to private Business Schools

Monday, 28 January 2013, the French channel France 2 did a report about the Business Schools which had been pointed out by the Court of Auditor and talked of the IAE as an alternative to Business Schools, providing the same quality of education for a very lower cost. Emmanuel Davidenkoff, chief editor of l'Etudiant (media specialized in Education) conclude this reporting saying that "Between a good business school and a good IAE, there is about the thickness of a sheet of waxed paper.".
