For over 30 years, Esdes Business School has been committed to training responsible managers who are competent, professional and wish to have a positive impact on their surroundings… To grow the economy without harming the environment. To develop employment opportunities, by including all those who have the least access to them. To innovate, in order to find solutions for social or environmental issues.
Esdes students and alumni all have something in common: they contribute to building a better world. They take pride in their actions, their projects and their companies. Through their daily activities, they are building a more responsible society, day by day.
Greater involvement throughout the course
At Esdes Business School, we recruit committed, invested students who will make the most of their first experience in an association or humanitarian organization.
Do you have projects that are important to you? Join Esdes and grow them.
The Esdes curriculum is full of opportunities to develop your skills in corporate social and environmental responsibility, business ethics, ecological and energy transition... We offer many courses where each student has the opportunity to debate the challenges of global warming, the digitalization of the economy or developments in artificial intelligence.
The skills and knowledge acquired in the courses are consolidated by field experience, involvement in associations, (which is compulsory in 1st and 3rd year), and the SoliCity mission (2 months of volunteer work, helping others, in France or abroad).
ESDES associations
There are over twenty associations and many of them contribute to social, humanitarian or environmental causes. Here is a selection:
- Enactus ESDES is member of the international ENACTUS network, and aims to promote social entrepreneurship and student project management for a more sustainable world. Students develop their project in teams, and are closely supervised so they are able to compete in national and international challenges. This is a way for them to help solve society's challenges by combining the knowledge of higher education, the expertise of the business world and the energy of students!
