We are ESDES

From her time at ESDES, Anne-Sophie remembers… a sense of values and the ability to innovate. The passion transmitted by the teachers, as well as the groupwork, have forged a solid entrepreneurial culture.

My favorite thing about ESDES is the diversity of the faculty: international staff, professionals, research professors, coaches…

ESDES is committed to professionalization, cultural diversity on campus, providing an international outlook, a dynamic student experience – especially involvement in associations – and good infrastructure and facilities… All the ingredients to make sure our time at ESDES is a success!

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.

From his time at ESDES, Simon remembers… a sense of attentiveness, sharing and team-building and all the skills necessary for developing your own business: accounting, corporate finance, law, marketing, project management…. We use everything: from theory to sharing experiences. Everything you need to grow!

I’ve been concerned about environmental issues for a long time. In high school, I was already involved in several associations within my community and at school. Being from the Ardèche region, protecting nature and its fragile balance is important to me. That’s why I came to ESDES – to develop these values and this sense of involvement. With The New Locals, I have been able to take concrete action to develop eco-friendly practices on campus.

“During my 5 wonderful years at ESDES I was able to develop work methods, a way of prioritizing and summarizing things and the drive to always strive for more”

From her time at ESDES, Pauline remembers… A solid network of friends and the basics of enology from the Enology Club…

Lamine Bodian is the founder and manager of an international commodity trading company. Thanks to his business network, he has built up a very solid teaching team in the program composed of specialists in different areas and expertise of risk management. He also taught or is still teaching with many foreign universities or business schools abroad in countries such as Germany, Norway, the Netherlands, Spain, Poland, Lebanon, Madagascar, Morocco etc.

From his time at ESDES, Benoît remembers… the essential recognition of the impact of social and human factors in the transformation of companies. His memories of social strategy classes are still a resource in his daily life today.

Getting involved in ESDES’ associations is such an enriching and powerful experience. Students come together around a shared passion or cause and create beautiful projects. But describing it doesn’t do it justice – it’s just an incredible adventure… you have to go for it!
