      Study abroad at CEFAM

      CEFAM is a French-American business school (Centre d’Etudes Franco-Américain de Management) that’s located in Lyon, France. Lyon has become a major European city, yet still has the feel of a smaller town in parts, making it perfect for students new to France.

      The business school aims to educate future decision makers and managers who will use their skills in international companies after graduation. The School models itself on American business schools and has strong links to US universities.

      The School offers just one program that gives students a French and American degree at the end of four years: the first three years of the program take place at CEFAM and focus on the fundamentals of international business, and then you specialize in an area of study in your fourth year, with the option to study in the US.
