Dauphine in Their Own Words

Gwenaël LE MOUËL
Financial Auditor at Ernst & Young

I joined the first promotion of the Master 2 in Accounting, Control, Auditing in order to deepen my knowledge in accounting and finance. In reality, this year of study allowed me to go beyond theory, it opened me up to the realities of the business world and also allowed me to gain perspective.

Simon TAILLEFER

My experience at KPMG as part of my training opened the doors to the "Sales" trade at Société Générale and then at Commerzbank in London. During these courses I was able, on a daily basis, to measure the contribution of the courses to my understanding of the pricing models I was using. Although the reputation of the master's degree in Accounting, Control, Auditing in these fields is well established, I can attest that the perfect balance of teaching in Law, Accounting and Finance gives you the opportunity to have great careers in a variety of sectors.
