EDHEC Winner in The " Grandes Ecoles " Awards

Published on January 16, 2006

"Rewarding imagination and audacity in the best educational establishments in France."  That was the idea behind the latest edition of the Grande Ecoles Awards where EDHEC Business School shone brilliantly, winning two major prizes out of four categories and receiving a special mention, confirming its energy and capacity to innovate.

In the category Pedagogical Innovation the School won first prize for its project Learning Teams, a unique and creative means of helping students develop managerial competences and leadership skills throughout their studies.

In the category " International " EDHEC Business School again took first prize for Intercontinental Track: 3years - 3 Continents a programme enabling students to follow their studies in three different continents.

In the category Company Relations a special mention was given to the School for its project entitled " EDHEC Bond Diversifier & EDHEC Equity Diversifiers ", the first finance products to be launched by a school in collaboration with a company (the group Societé Generale) and which are based on a methodology developed by the EDHEC Risk & Asset Management Research Centre.

These trophies were awarded after an analysis of more than 200 applications by a panel of judges presided by Jean-Pierre Boisivon, Delegate for the Company Institute in partnership with Societé Generale.

Over and above the fame and prestige of these awards, the judges distinguished the ability of prize-winners to innovate in pedagogy and organisation, once again highlighting the quality of teaching methods at EDHEC Business School.
