EDHEC Pedagogy

PEDAGOGY AT EDHEC BUSINESS SCHOOL

EDHEC Business School's professors and the various contributors to the programmes on our campuses and online, design every day a pedagogy that is both global and inclusive, respecting singularities and diversity of approach. Included more broadly in the student experience offered by the school, this pedagogy is based above all on interaction and collaboration, and a central place given to "learning by doing" which engages students in concrete exchanges on the realities of business. Creativity, critical and constructive thinking, and self-assessment are just some of the components of an approach transmitted and implemented by the teachers. Whether you are a student in a Bachelor's degree, a Master's degree, a Grande Ecole programme or an Executive Education programme, EDHEC is committed to an adaptive approach that fosters agility and personal and professional fulfilment in our students.

PILAB: EDHEC'S INNOVATIVE AND DIGITAL HUB

Pedagogical innovation is considered as one of the essential components of EDHEC's strategy. The objective of the pedagogical innovation laboratory, "EDHEC PiLab", is to meet students' expectations and their need for the digital skills required by their future employers by supporting professors in their pedagogical innovations (online or blended courses, innovative animation formats, etc.). The student experience is the keystone of all these innovations: living these years of training together but taking into account the context and personality of each student. Thanks to blended learning, EDHEC gives students and professors the opportunity to teach and learn differently. With the support of the IT department and thanks to new fluid and scalable technological solutions, they are redesigning more flexible physical spaces to serve the teaching process

LEARNING BY DOING

The school's signature, "Impact future generations", translates into programmes based on learning-by-doing. Based on the theories of active learning, the aim of this approach is to involve the student and make him or her the actor of his or her learning. Through this dynamic, the student is able to develop critical thinking, creativity and self-evaluation. This way of learning helps students to become engaged actors in their environment.

The development of real-life case studies, simulations, the "Open Innovation" and "Challenge Nego" seminars, the BBA SIP projects integrating projects centred on one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals decreed by the United Nations, the Pre-Master's Climate Fresco, etc. are all opportunities for students to reflect on and seek impactful solutions to societal problems.
