Since its creation in 1988, ESPEME's mission has been to train aspiring young managers.

Our goal is to reveal our students' innovative and ambitious talents to lead projects and people in today's global economy. Performance, reactivity, flexibility, originality and diversity are the dominant features of our learning project where the student is placed firmly at the centre of our attention.

Who is the ESPEME programme for?

The ESPEME programme has been designed for young school-leavers with literary and economic specialisations and students who have completed one year of undergraduate studies.

Students with two years general undergraduate studies may also apply for admission to the 2nd year (AST2) and students with two years business-oriented undergraduate studies such as Business or Management students are eligible to apply for admission to the third year (AST3).

In addition, EDHEC Business School together with all its programmes has been awarded international AACSB accreditation and the European EQUIS label.
