Under the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Montpellier, ESC Montpellier, a centenary institution of higher education firmly implanted in the European Higher Education Area, offers three complementary dimensions :
- High-level academic training : the ESC programme is aimed at providing highly functional and strategic management skills. The main, academic core of the programme is consequently delivered by permanent lecturers with a proven record in research (generating knowledge) and teaching (imparting knowledge).
- Promoting difference : business performance is enriched by both individual and collective qualities. Corporate performance is neither innate nor limited to individual areas. This is the reason why, just like business players, the ESC Montpellier programme is enriched by the wide-ranging ethnic diversity of its participants, offering great opportunity to experience various different cultures.
- Student employability : in order to develop a student's individual capacity to acquire and maintain the skills necessary for professional success, the ESC Montpellier programme includes compulsory international training as well as an industrial work experience programme which are designed to strategically complement the academic programme.
This is how ‘universally-skilled specialists’ destined to be recruited by corporations and given the opportunity to quickly advance to positions of high managerial responsibility are trained. Further details of ESC Montpellier’s ethos in practical terms are available on this site.
Welcome to the heart of the ESC Montpellier programme!
