Answer: they are members of the Conférence des Grandes Écoles (CGE).

38 schools are members of the CGE

Of the 400 management schools in France only 38 are members of the Conférence des Grandes Écoles including EM Normandie.

Recognition of diplomas

A special feature of the "Grandes Écoles" is that they are all recognised by the State and award Bachelor's degrees and Master's degree.

More broadly they are part of a dynamic of excellence - research - international openness and connection with companies in order to guarantee the success of students and successful professional integration.
