LIVE IN FRANCE
WHY STUDY IN FRANCE? France is an ideal place to study abroad thanks to its rich culture, gastronomy, architecture, and thriving student life. It has been the home of many of the world’s greatest philosophers and thinkers, and is a historic center of culture, from the Lumière Brother’s invention of cinema to the evolution of the cutting-edge fashion industry. Every year, France’s cultural events and festivities attract people from all over the world. Not only is France renowned for its culture, there are also some particularly good reasons to choose this country to pursue an education in business. Campus France highlights that France ranks third in Europe in gross domestic product and is the second-largest European market (IMF 2018, Eurostat 2015). Furthermore, according to the latest barometer published by international accounting firm EY, in 2020 France has risen to first place in the ranking of European countries most attractive to international investors.
THE REST OF EUROPE WITHIN EASY REACH Both Lille and Paris are strategic crossroads to access the rest of Europe, with high-speed trains (TGVs) connecting them to Brussels, London, Amsterdam, and more. Airports provide affordable travel options to the rest of Europe, so that, after only a few hours of travel, residents of these two cities can access many large European cities. Be it for a long vacation or a weekend trip, destinations abound.
10
FRENCH CULTURE AND LIFESTYLE
ARCHITECTURE Both Lille and Paris boast cultural attractions, with museums, monuments, historic parks and gardens, and more. Even walking in these cities sends pedestrians back in time, with Lille’s distinct Flemish architecture, its over 100-meter high belfry, for example, recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage site. Similarly, in Paris, strolls lead tourists and residents alike past Haussmann-style apartments, and other well-known monuments, such as the Arc de Triomphe. While Lille is a smaller city and not necessarily as well known on an international scale as Paris, it is one of the largest cities in France, named the World Capital of Design in 2020 by the World Design Organization, and has been previously named the Cultural Capital of Europe. With many universities and schools in the city, it has a bustling student life.
GASTRONOMY France is synonymous with food and wine, with a seemingly endless amount of restaurants and bakeries in Lille and Paris. With over 300 different types of cheese, and a variety of unique dishes in every region, there is something for everyone.
LIVE EVENTS Lille and Paris are both home to many theatres and concert halls, providing a selection of ballet, dance and musical formations. Highlights include the Lille National Orchestra and the Philharmonie de Paris, two of France’s finest philharmonics, with many performances a year. Whether a lover of classical theatre or contemporary dance, a jazz fan or simply fascinated by new musical genres, Lille and Paris offer students an abundance of performance options. Similarly, both cities propose many other events, such as the Braderie in Lille, a city-wide flea market that attracts merchants as well as visitors from all around Europe, making it a special Lilloise occasion.

PARIS-LA DÉFENSE AND LILLE CAMPUSES THE PARIS-LA DÉFENSE CAMPUS La Défense – Europe’s largest purpose-built business district.
The La Défense location of IÉSEG’s Paris campus is a strategic plus. Established primarily to strengthen IÉSEG’s links with French and international companies, it has enhanced the institution’s international reputation and visibility. As IÉSEG’s reputation continues to grow along with its student population, the expansion of the Paris-La Défense campus in 2017 has enabled the School to welcome almost twice as many students as it could before. Composed of three buildings with a total of 16,500 m2 (177,000 sq. ft.), the campus offers students 20 lecture halls, 40 classrooms, three multimedia rooms, two trading rooms, a library, two cafeterias and meeting rooms for clubs and associations.
THE LILLE CAMPUS IÉSEG’s Lille campus features six buildings (with a total of 22,500 m2) located in central Lille.
The campus hosts more than 3,000 students annually who enjoy a wide variety of modern and functional facilities, including meeting rooms, computer rooms, trading rooms, etc. As a part of the Université Catholique de Lille, in a neighborhood hosting 31,000 students, IÉSEG students have access to IÉSEG’s own library, but also to university and online libraries as well. In addition, the Lille campus is undergoing a renovation and extension project, the IÉSEG Village, for its historic Lille campus. The objective of this project, inspired by the input and work of the School’s community (colleagues and students), is to create a campus of international standing, offering students a unique intercultural learning experience.
ZOOM ON… RESPONSIBLE AND SUSTAINABLE CAMPUSES > All the new buildings are built according to HQE requirements (High Environmental Quality) standards. For example, the future premises in Lille will have of particularly high-performance equipment: • Triple glazing and screen-printed glass to reinforce insulation • Vegetated roof to reduce the temperature in summer • Heating supplied by the district heating network • Recovery of rainwater • Participatory gardens > Beehives are installed on the roofs of the School buildings. > The use of single-use plastic cups has been reduced by the distribution of reusable water bottles to students and staff.

INTERNATIONALLY ORIENTED STUDENT INITIATIVES IÉSEG ABROAD Every year, many IÉSEG students join a partner university for an academic exchange semester, to complete an internship or a gap year abroad. In order to provide advice to future expatriates, exchange on cultural differences from one country to another, and reassure them, IÉSEG Abroad, a blog created by students, for students, is a platform for exchange and sharing of experiences. For more information: www.ieseg-abroad.fr
THE INTERNATIONAL CLUB: FEEL AT HOME The International Club is a student association with the following objectives for the reception of international students on IÉSEG campuses. First, it organizes cultural and friendly events for French and international students during the “orientation week” but also throughout the academic year. The International Club is also in charge of the “Buddy System” which allows international students to be sponsored by French students upon their arrival.
IÉSEG awarded the “Welcome to France” Certification Label by Campus France The quality of the reception of international students is a fundamental issue for the internationalization and attractiveness of higher education. France, one of the top 5 host countries for international students, is today implementing the “Welcome to France” strategy, via Campus France, which aims to attract 500,000 foreign students by 2027. This strategy for attracting international students is based on a comprehensive system, including the creation of a “Welcome to France” certification label. The “Bienvenue en France” label distinguishes French higher education institutions, which have developed reception measures made available to international students by French higher education institutions, and represents a promotional and outreach tool for the institution. IÉSEG is one of the 89 certified institutions among the 183 undertaking the ‘3 star’ certification (as of the end of May 2020). The certification demonstrates the quality of the reception at IÉSEG.

AN INTERNATIONAL DIMENSION THAT IS ALSO REFLECTED IN THE CAREERS OF GRADUATES Internationality and interculturality being omnipresent at IÉSEG, the School encourages its students to see beyond borders, to enrich themselves with different teaching and managerial methods among our university partners and in companies. A strong international dimension that is reflected in the careers of our graduates. 27% of them work in more than 80 different countries. To animate this network, IÉSEG Network, the association of the School’s graduates, has developed about fifteen international branches.
IÉSEG IS PHYSICALLY PRESENT ACROSS BORDERS The School also has several representative offices around the world, with the aim of promoting IÉSEG, its vision, values and programs to future students, academic, institutional or corporate partners.

STUDENT SERVICES Living abroad can be both fun and challenging. IÉSEG has developed a comprehensive program of activities and support mechanisms to facilitate students’ adaptation to their new surroundings, meaning the IÉSEG campus and its facilities, but also the city around it and French culture in general.
ORIENTATION WEEK Every year, IÉSEG organizes an orientation week for international students just before the start of the academic year. During this week, students are introduced to IÉSEG and its facilities, the program that they have chosen to study, the staff in charge of their teaching, their class schedule, as well as the School’s IT procedures. A broader orientation is also offered, covering subjects such as, how to navigate the public transportation system and how to handle various administrative procedures, including accessing a government housing subsidy, opening a bank account, and generally understanding the qualities of student life in France. In short, international students are provided with tips and guidelines on how to successfully integrate into the School, the city and the country.
ACCOMMODATION A variety of on- and off-campus housing options is available, including student residence halls and private residences, as well as private housing and apartment sharing.
20
BUDDY SYSTEM IÉSEG also offers a Buddy System, which pairs new international students with current students who can offer a friendly face and a helping hand. This system is in place on both the Paris-La Défense and Lille campuses and helps new international students adapt to life at IÉSEG every year. Typical “buddy” activities include: > showing new students around campus,
> identifying banks and grocery stores in the vicinity,
> helping newcomers with communicating in French,
> providing invaluable information about French and local customs.
PROGRAM COORDINATORS For help with students’ academic inquiries, IÉSEG’s Program Coordinators are the primary contacts. Each program has its dedicated Coordinator to assist students with questions about their courses, schedules, exams, etc.
APS / VISA As students approach the end of their studies at IÉSEG, some may wish to apply for a Temporary Resident Permit, or APS (Autorisation Provisoire de Séjour), which allows international students to remain in France for one year after the end of their studies. This period gives graduates the opportunity to look for employment in France or to prepare for the creation of a company in a field corresponding to their training.
21
CSR, EMBEDDED IN IÉSEG’S DNA IÉSEG is committed to being an ethical, socially responsible and sustainable organization. Its vision, mission and values reflect this major motive: inspire change on a daily basis and invite its entire ecosystem to share its approach. AN ETHICAL, SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE AND SUSTAINABLE COMMITMENT

Corporate Social Responsibility is rooted in its DNA and is integrated into all of the School’s actions, in its classrooms, in its research activities, in its culture, etc.
A CSR DIMENSION AT ALL TIMES
IÉSEG’s mission is to train managers who are inspiring, ethical and intercultural pioneers of change, and to promote creative solutions for and with responsible organizations.

22
CSR is part of the daily life of the School, in particular via:

A PRACTICAL APPROACH
Students have a practical approach to CSR solidarity or consulting projects. This gives them an idea of the challenges that the integration of CSR represents for a company’s strategy, which pushes them to propose innovative solutions. The CSR Challenge
Each year, 3rd year students in the Grande École and Bachelor in International Business Programs work on CSR issues proposed by a partner company. The CRÉENSO Prize, National Prize for the Creator of a Social Enterprise
It brings together the worlds of academia and business for a dual cause: to contribute to the success of young companies that focus on the human and social dimension, and to the emergence of a new generation of entrepreneurs.
