The MSc. in Marketing is the first year of the TSM Doctoral Programme which is an EFMD-Accredited rigorous international training.
The European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) is the most thorough programme accreditation system for business and management programmes with an international perspective. According to EFMD: "[...] the Doctoral Programme is a very good programme with well-organised and institutionalised provision. It concentrates on developing candidates with rigorous research competencies in combination with the ability to identify and communicate on the practical applications of research. The programme offers a robust international learning experience through institutional networks and partners."
The Master of Science in Marketing aims at training a new generation of creative, entrepreneurial and innovative researchers, able to face current and future challenges.
To do so it creatively combines the best of practice, theory, qualitative & quantitative tools and reality-based education. You will attend academic conferences, make presentations, organise seminars, and contribute to management and academic decisions. It also offers high quality teaching and a truly multicultural work environment with students coming from all over the world.
Our MSc offers the excellence training needed for international and French university graduates interested in pursuing a career in research:
Rigorous selection process
Close supervision by internationally recognized high-level research professors who publish in the best journals
Full immersion in the lab research activities
Exchanges with the world’s best universities
Research presentations in the leading international conferences
We deliberately keep the MSc small to allow you to work closely with your supervisor, develop interaction with other faculty members who will be happy to act as sounding boards, and gain teaching experience.

I really loved my Toulouse School of Management experience. I started my Bachelor at TSM and continued with the Master in Marketing.
I think that the professors are awesome when talking about marketing and strategy, and that the research Master programme is very complete. It helped me to find my way and choose the professional life I wanted. I would not hesitate to recommend the research Master cursus I did to anyone who wants to work in marketing.
