5,800 students: a record start to the school year

At the start of the 2021 academic year, the Business School welcomed 2,100 new students to its campuses, 16% more than the previous year.
Despite the particular context of the pandemic, 300 new international students joined EM Normandie, bringing their number to over 1,000.

Once again this year, the excellence of the School's training programmes and its teaching staff attracted applicants. The School recruited well through the entrance exams (Sesame, Passerelle Grande École, BCE, Passerelle Bachelor) as well as through application-based admission in France and internationally.

More than ever, the Grande École system remains a safe bet!

In the spirit of "Back to Real Life" and in accordance with the measures of the DGESIP circular of 5 August 2021 on the "orientations relating to health measures applicable to the start of the 2021 academic year", the School welcomes its students up to its overall capacity on its national campuses, where it is compulsory to wear a mask. Classes are given in person with distance access, particularly for international students who are unable to travel to the sites. The same applies to Oxford and Dublin.

Work-study programmes in constant progression

The Business School has reaffirmed its status as a leader in work-study programmes, with more than 1,500 work-study students, an increase of 50% compared to the year 2020-2021, which had already seen a strong increase. 

Both a vector of social openness and a real springboard for the professional integration of young graduates, work-study is offered in the following programmes: Bachelor International Management (3^rd year) and during the Master in Management (Programme Grande École).
