I took the “Master in Management for Sustainability” to build on my Bachelor’s degree in banking and insurance. My focus was on sustainable finance, which, in the light of my African origins, holds great promise for the economic and social context of developing countries. I wanted to do a course that would be in tune with our modern times and respond to the world’s current challenges.

During my studies at IÉSEG, I particularly appreciated the cultural diversity: from now on, I see my difference as a strength! I also appreciated the friendliness and availability of the administrative and teaching staff. Thanks to this, the stress and anxiety associated with administrative formalities have vanished at IÉSEG! I also had the incredible opportunity to travel to London and take part in networking events. I also think that the richness of the courses on offer, which combine science, economics and business, gives you all the tools you need to find your place in the job market afterwards.

If I had to mention one particular memory of the school, it would be the Chinese course, which wasn’t just about learning a language, but appreciating a culture as a whole. I enjoyed the outings and the fun environment in which we learned. My special thanks go to Ms. Shen, who contributed greatly to my well-being in her own way.
