For over 10 years, the AVENIR Excellence Scholarships have been a key bilateral cooperation program in the field of higher education. Promoted by the French Embassy in Spain and the Spanish Embassy in France, in collaboration with the Spanish association “Diálogo” and Campus France, these scholarships promote higher education for young people in the neighboring country.

The AVENIR program, which is supported by companies, public bodies and higher education institutions, has already rewarded more than 200 young scholarship recipients, demonstrating the interest of young Spanish and French people in this program.

IÉSEG has been a partner of the Excellence Scholarship program for over 3 years, and each year rewards a young Spanish student who wishes to pursue higher education in France. Last year, Judith BOU HERNANDEZ enrolled in the Master in Fashion Management program. This year, Lucas FREARD RUIZ won the AVENIR Excellence Scholarship, sponsored by IÉSEG, and will join the Grande École Program in his first year.

His highly international background (of Spanish origin, he spent his middle school years in Ireland, Italy and Austria, before spending his high school years in France and then in Kobe, Japan), his intercultural openness and the excellence of his academic record won him this scholarship.

IÉSEG will be delighted to welcome Lucas FREARD RUIZ to its Lille campus at the end of August, alongside Hugo LEDESMA MERIC, another Spanish student who has won the AVENIR scholarship awarded by the French Embassy in Spain.

IÉSEG congratulates Lucas and Hugo and looks forward to welcoming them as they begin their studies at the School.
