From 14 to 19 October 2024, ESSEC Asia-Pacific held its annual ESSEC Experience Week—a series of information sessions and panel discussions designed to introduce prospective students to ESSEC’s diverse range of international programs.

Led by the Marketing, Recruitment & Admissions team, this week-long event featured nine sessions, including eight online sessions for the Master’s programs and one hybrid session for the Global BBA.

The sessions brought together ESSEC faculty from both APAC and Cergy campuses, program advisors, and alumni, providing prospective students with a comprehensive understanding of the school’s unique academic offerings, global opportunities, and available career pathways.

Through engaging presentations and panel discussions, attendees gained valuable insights into how ESSEC can support their educational and professional aspirations.

This year’s Experience Week was a resounding success, attracting over 6,695 registrations—a remarkable 156% increase from the previous year.

The event’s success was made possible through the collaborative efforts of the faculty, marketing, facilities, and IT support teams, which ensured a seamless experience for both online and on-campus participants.

The primary goal of ESSEC Experience Week was to provide prospective students with an in-depth introduction to ESSEC and its programs. By showcasing the school’s academic excellence and global reach, the event positioned ESSEC as a top choice for future leaders.

The Marketing, Recruitment & Admissions team sincerely thanks everyone involved in making this year’s Experience Week a success and eagerly anticipates welcoming the next cohort to the ESSEC community.
