Since its founding in 1961, ISTEC Business School Paris has integrated economic, environmental, and social developments into its curriculum, repeatedly impacting all aspects of its teaching.
For over 60 years, the school has anticipated the needs of businesses and supported young people in their personal and professional development, training curious, responsible, and enterprising managers capable of thriving in a constantly evolving world.
New ways of creating value and generating profit align with the aspirations of the population, particularly a growing number of young people. They are attentive to issues related to the preservation of the planet’s resources, the social impact of their activities, and the ethics of businesses and their representatives.
They want and seek meaningful professional activity. Humanistic and committed, they are driving societal change and reinventing models by creating collaborative, equitable, and responsible alternatives. We are witnessing a collective awakening, a global movement, and local initiatives.
Nevertheless, all the business leaders, association representatives, and local government officials consulted emphasize that current young graduates are still ill-prepared to support this transformation. They are indeed aware, willing, and motivated, but insufficiently trained to seek out these new business opportunities and adopt the necessary cross-functional approach.
Therefore, Istec has decided to update its curriculum by revisiting all of its courses from the perspective of new business models.
The school continues to prioritize active learning to empower its students to be agents of change and informed of their future social and professional responsibilities. True to its history, Istec applies its academic research and teaching methods particularly to topics related to marketing as a whole.

The school’s faculty is structured around a multidisciplinary group of permanent professors comprised of:
Thus, a “knowledge” approach and theoretical training, thanks to the presence of lead professors, are continuously combined with a “professional” approach through field activities and the involvement of professional experts.
