The “international” placement

During the « BACHELOR » period, you will spend 6 months abroad from June onwards. The type of mission you choose to do and the country you choose to go to should be in relation to your professional project. You will start thinking about it with your personal tutor as soon as you start in September. To develop your entrepreneurial abilities, you will find your mission yourselves. This will be your first major challenge. Of course you will receive the training you need to do this in terms of knowledge, know-how and behavior, and the school’s resources will be at your disposal.

“entrepreneur” work experience

During the « MSc » period, you will do placement of at least 6 months in France or abroad. This placement should be in a « profession » that is linked to the professional project that you will have worked on for the last two years. This will give you the opportunity to work in a sector of the economy that you are attracted to so that you can form a clear idea of the professional tasks you will have to carry out once you have graduated.

The professional dissertation at the end of the MSc period

Throughout your studies at our school, you will have capitalized on several experiences which all contribute to building your employability. Your employer will be informed of these experiences, as they will be appended to your diploma. Consequently, you will be able to explain your choice to recruiters. To prepare you for this and to check that you have appropriated the acquired experiences with sufficient hindsight, you will write and present a “professional dissertation” to a jury. This dissertation should sum up all you have done at ESC PAU in the form of a personal and professional assessment that justifies your choices.
