Louis Bonduelle
ESDES Alumni 2014
From his time at ESDES, Louis remembers … Memories from abroad, friends of course, but also a solid background of varied skills, all of which are necessary in the day-to-day running of his company. Being able to talk to a lawyer, a salesman, a banker, a marketing manager etc. are major assets when you are developing a company. Without necessarily being an expert, you have to be able to make yourself understood, make certain decisions and evaluate results.
Auriane
ESDES ENACTUS TEAM LEADER
The ESDES Enactus program allows us to develop our interpersonal, managerial and entrepreneurial skills through a unique experience! I loved playing a part in addressing society’s challenges by thinking up creative and cooperative projects.
Aimée
BACHELOR IN LAW & MANAGEMENT STUDENT
I have always been interested in law and legal matters. The Bachelor in Law and Management is the only course that offers a dual curriculum from the first year. When I was younger, I wanted to become a lawyer. However, when I graduated from high school, I opted for a business school to broaden my career choices and job opportunities, without specializing too early. Today, with ESDES and the Faculty of Law, I can fulfill my ambitions while at the same time shaping a different outlook on the world, and am developing a wider range of skills and a profile that really stands out.

Maëlys Piébourg
MASTER’S STUDENT SPECIALIZING IN MANAGEMENT, HUMANITIES AND INNOVATION
I chose this specialization so that I could continue studying philosophy while opening doors to the business world, with the aim of learning to apply philosophical theories and concepts to management.
All the subjects in management and business offer high-quality, demanding classes, taught by excellent teachers, reviewed and developed in depth, and combined with the main philosophical theories.
After my work-study placement at MacAnders, a large Parisian headhunting firm, I would like to work in managerial positions: managing people and being able to draw on my philosophy and psychology classes, as well as my management classes this year, so that I can apply the “management of tomorrow” that we have envisioned!
