Within the framework of so-called Culture and Discovery path, the IPAG allows you to learn about disciplines other than management and to develop your creativity.
Presentation
"The Culture and Discovery Pathways are an academic initiation to various fields of the humanities and the arts: history, music, theatre, literature, political science, philosophy, communication, anthropology, geopolitics and visual creation... It is a mainstay of the ipagian education which provides our students with a cultural awareness and enables them to have a critical and analytical view of the challenges in the world today.
A few examples of courses...
The X'treme trails of the Grande École Programme are an invitation to going beyond your limits, through unprecedented real-life situations.
Presentation
Solidarity and going beyond limits are both fundamental values of management as well as the life of any company. Since we believe that these values, at IPAG, have to be taught to our students, we made sure to include some of these experiences from the very beginning of the Programme Grande École. During a week, you are encouraged to dive into an unknown environment for a survival course in the mountain or a cybersecurity simulation, for instance. Confronted to complex conditions, you have to adapt quickly and take on unexpected responsibilities.
A few examples of X'treme experiences...
A Grande École curriculum allows to connect and build relationships with fellow students. It includes unique experiences, which are a good way to create and develop a strong team spirit.
This event is held on the occasion of the start of the school year, each September, and brings all 1st year students together, to allow them to discover the school, its environment and its values. Greeted by your teaching staff and 2nd year students, you will take your first steps at IPAG in a friendly and exciting atmosphere.
Concretely, after a day dedicated to a presentation of the school and a campus tour, you start working in groups, under the watchful eye of your professors, during a 3-day business game. This is a way to get to know your classmates and tackle your first challenges together.
Just a few weeks after the school year starts, you will go away for an experience that cannot be missed - your welcome weekend. For three days, you will participate in sporting and fun activities: pool party, foam party, blind test, volleyball, archery, softball... Organised by the Student Council, each year in a different location (Bassin d'Arcachon, Var, Ardèche...), this weekend is a wonderful opportunity to have fun, live unforgettable moments and to forge lasting relationships with your classmates who, like you, have just joined the IPAG.
Those unique experiences aim to forge a spirit of unity among students.
A week on the ski slopes
The Sport Club organises each year at the end of February or at the beginning of March, a one-week stay in the French Alps (Alpe d'Huez, Risoul, Megève...). It is the occasion for all students to come together for skiing, snowboarding and partying with their classmates.
The end-of-year gala
Organised by the BDE, the Christmas Galas in Paris and Nice bring together all our students in prestigious venues. On their 31st, our students spend a pleasant moment often organised in conjunction with other associations to offer several events in the evening such as the BDA concert, the Ipag Mode/ runway show or the BDS demonstrations.
Le Green Day
The Ethics and Environment Day is dedicated to sustainable development in action, to the circular and collaborative economy in order to raise students' awareness and provide them with concrete illustrations of sustainable development in their daily lives and of the many innovations. Themes: Mobility, food, accommodation, equipment, education and media, participative financing, innovative start-ups, third places, SSE, Fab lab, apps, collaborative platforms...
Since our teaching is built on experiential learning and in order for you to be fully operational at the end of your studies, your curriculum at IPAG is marked with numerous Business Games. They allow you to put your knowledge, know-how and interpersonal skills into practice in a fun way and in real-life conditions.
IPAG Business Challenge
The purpose of this Business Game is to promote and market a partner company's product. This week-long challenge is a good way to develop your team spirit while working on a hands-on project.
#Negoc’IPAG
During the annual #Negoc'IPAG contest, four to a dozens of companies submit a business negotiation case to our 5th year students in the Grande École Programme. After a preparation phase that lasts 2.5 hours, the students begin the negotiation in front of a jury of seasoned professionals. For the companies involved (CBRE, Altran, IZI by EDF...), this event is an opportunity to take a fresh look at their issues and to identify future graduates with high potential. On your side, it's a chance to test your persuasive abilities in front of professional business people.
EDUCATIA Challenge
Besides the challenges taking place at IPAG, our students also compete in Business Games outside the school, such as Agorize, against teams from other schools. In October 2019, IPAG students won the Sustainable Beauty Challenge, led by Cosmetic Valley in partnership with the LVMH group. After an intense hackathon involving 900 participants, the IPAG project seduced the LVMH group, which is now continuing its collaboration with the winners. These events are all opportunities to showcase your talents to recruiters.
