Professional Openings
The skills on which air transport companies rely are a refl ection of the complexity of the operational environment, and are both numerous and specialised. However, only the major airlines can afford to recruit the many specialists in law, economics or management whom they really need. For smaller companies, a global understanding of the air transport business is an essential requirement.
Obtaining the “Mastère Spécialisé” (MS) Air Transport Management is a precious asset for those occupying such positions as: head of market studies, sales representative, management controller, operational research engineer, line manager...

Prerequisites
Generally, candidates for admission into a “Mastère Spécialisé” (MS) programme, must already hold a degree at the college entry level of [Bac + 5] or [Bac + 4 & 3 years of professional experience after Bac + 4].
However, it is possible to apply with a Bac + 4 level, despite having no professional experience, but the number of places for candidates in this (exceptional) category is very limited.
For the “Mastère Spécialisé” (MS) in Air Transport Management, the following are considered, among others:- Masters’ degree from an engineering or business school- Other university degree (Master 2, DESS, DEA or non-French MSc equivalents) in law, economics or business.
Particular consideration will be given to candidates who have completed work placements with airports, airlines, travel agents or aircraft construction companies
Note: A French BAC is comparable to a High School diploma. + 3 are the numbers of years of extra studies, usually a college
or university environment.
