At École de Management Appliqué (EMA), we believe that every academic journey should begin with connection, clarity, and inspiration. Our recent Integration Day was the perfect embodiment of that belief—a day filled with knowledge-sharing, meaningful conversations, and a true taste of French culture.
The morning began with a warm welcome from Professor Joëlle Fanghanel, who led a comprehensive session introducing students to the programmes that will shape their academic paths. With her signature clarity and passion, Professor Fanghanel highlighted how each module is designed not only to provide deep theoretical knowledge but also to equip students with practical skills aligned with today’s job market. From strategic management to digital marketing, she outlined how EMA’s curriculum directly supports students' career aspirations—whether in corporate leadership, entrepreneurship, or international development.
Following the academic overview, the atmosphere transitioned into an open and engaging exchange among students. New students shared their expectations, ambitions, and first impressions of EMA, while enjoying typical French refreshments—aromatic coffee, flaky croissants, and warm smiles all around.
A highlight of the afternoon was the meet-and-greet session with former students. Alumni returned to campus to share their personal journeys, offering real-world insight into how their time at EMA helped them land exciting roles in international organizations, launch their own businesses, or continue their education abroad. Their stories were not just inspiring—they were powerful reminders of what is possible with dedication and the right academic foundation.
Integration Day wasn’t just about information—it was about inspiration, community, and a sense of belonging. For our new students, it marked the start of a transformative chapter. And for EMA, it was another proud moment welcoming the next generation of global leaders.
