“Une formation d'exception”
Anaïs E
France, Graduate
Management Science, 2019
Overall
Je suis enchantée par le cursus que m'offre l'ESSEC, car il s'agit d'un parcours totalement à la carte, qui me permet de profiter de nombreuses opportunités et d'avoir un parcours académique et professionnel qui me ressemble.
L'ESSEC me permet par ailleurs de me spécialiser par l'intermédiaires des Chaires, qui offrent des cours de qualité et un vrai accompagnement par les professeurs.
Enfin, l'ESSEC offre un large choix d'échanges et de parcours à l'étranger, ce qui permet très facilement d'internationaliser son parcours.
Je recommande à 300% !

Nothing particular. You can choose either to stay at Cergy or live in Paris, both solutions are quite feasible. If you stay for a quarter, plan to attend four to five exams, and be ready to get to know many people! :)
