Doctorate

As with the University of Lorraine as a whole, around half of the doctoral students supervised by IAE teacher-researchers are of foreign nationality, demonstrating our undeniable international influence in research.

However, you do not register for a doctorate via the IAE (even if your thesis director is a teacher-researcher based at the IAE), but directly via the research laboratory and the Doctoral School concerned.

For management sciences, this is the CEREFIGE research laboratory: https://cerefige.univ-lorraine.fr/ and the “SJPEG” Doctoral School (Legal, Political, Economic and Management Sciences): https://doctorat.univ-lorraine.fr/en/doctoral-schools/sjpeg
