ESC Rennes School of Business is an international Graduate School, part of the French network of "Grandes Ecoles", the cream of French academic institutions. This illustrates the importance we place on the three foundational dimensions of a graduate school of management:

 

puce_Institutionnelle Academic excellence :

 

Our staff are both fully involved in student teaching methods and highly committed to knowledge creation, ensuring that the latest findings in management science continually feed through into their teaching.

 

puce_Institutionnelle A fully international environment:


Two-thirds of the permanent faculty and one third of our students are international: this contributes to an outstanding cultural mix in day-to-day campus life. ESC Rennes Business School is a French "Grande Ecole", with a fully international environment in terms of its culture, teaching, faculty, students, courses, qualifications, day-to-day campus life and ambitions.
.

 

 

puce_Institutionnelle Close partnership with the business world:


The business world is the obvious destination for our students (over half of them are hired even before they have completed their studies) and companies are genuine teaching partners at the ESC, following the progress of our students from their arrival at the school right through to graduation.


We are convinced that tomorrow's world will be even more global than today's and that managers and company leaders will necessarily have to 'think and act global'. This is why we believe that learning about the diversity of the world around us and regional cultures is a vital accompaniment to learning about management itself.


The ESC Rennes School of Business is continuing to build on its fundamental value of being geared to the international scene and forging its global personality.
Coming to join us is a choice in favour of a truly "Global School"
