Participants are also offered two specialisation tracks: Fashion & Luxury and Entrepreneurship & Digital Transformation.

This trailblazing Master of Science delivers a unique student experience, focusing on the interface between creativity and analytical thinking in marketing management. It deploys multiple approaches to marketing through its case- and project-based #NotByTheBook teaching methodology, preparing the next generation of strategic, responsible, competent and creative marketers.

The MSc in Marketing & Creativity adopts a hands-on, original approach to the topics of creativity, marketing, management and analytics. It also incorporates consultancy projects, creative seminars with corporate partners, case studies, experience in emerging markets and guest speakers, as well as the minimum four-month professional experience (internship/direct employment).

Each year, students take part in the Big Picture project brought by the L’Oréal Professorship in Creativity. This special opportunity allows participants to work on a creative business brief for L'Oréal and make recommendations based on a real area of research within the company. This year’s brief was to address opportunities to bring gaming into the beauty experience in 2025. The project constituted a one-of-a-kind opportunity for ESCP students to combine their understanding of digital channels and technologies, marketing and strategy, and consumer behaviour with their analytical and creative skills, developing breakthrough solutions on behalf of their client.
