The campuses
PARIS-LA DÉFENSE

The La Défense location of IÉSEG’s Paris campus is a strategic advantage. Established to strengthen IÉSEG’s connections with French and international companies, it has boosted the institution’s international reputation and visibility. As IÉSEG’s reputation and student population have grown, the expansion of the Paris-La Défense campus has allowed the School to accommodate significantly more students.
The campus consists of several buildings and offers students lecture halls, classrooms, multimedia rooms, trading rooms, a library, cafeterias, and meeting rooms for clubs and associations.
Lille
IÉSEG’s Lille campus consists of several buildings located in central Lille.
The campus welcomes a large number of students annually, offering a variety of modern and functional facilities, including meeting rooms, computer rooms, trading rooms, and more. As part of the Catholic University of Lille, in a neighborhood bustling with students, IÉSEG students have access to the School’s own library as well as university and online libraries.
Additionally, the Lille campus is undergoing a renovation and extension project, known as the IÉSEG Village, for its historic campus. This project, shaped by contributions from staff and students, aims to create an internationally recognized campus that provides a unique intercultural learning experience.
