Programme Overview
EMA's Sustainable Academy is designed to offer a rigorous and accessible summer learning environment for learners at different stages of their journey, within an academic setting with a global outlook.
Explore a rotating set of seminars across global business fundamentals and sustainability-led decision-making; from finance and strategy to ESG, ethics, sustainability, and cross-border law. One topic per two-week seminar, designed for focused learning and academic momentum.
A flexible timetable offers modular options throughout the summer: Discovery (2 weeks, 1 seminar), Intensive (4 weeks, 2 seminars), and the Bridge Term (12 weeks). Depending on the programme, options may include language classes (French or English). Each format has stated learning objectives and a structured approach.
Based in Paris, the Academy can be a first step into a higher-education environment, a way to maintain academic continuity between milestones, a structured refresher in key areas, or a bridging programme before you take your next academic step.
