About AES Paris

OVERVIEW

AES Paris is not your typical business school. We’re here to prepare Generation Z – and every future generation – to tackle the world’s most urgent and exciting challenges: innovation, design thinking, sustainability, entrepreneurship, artificial intelligence, data, and digital transformation.

 

Inspired by the pioneering spirit of École 42, AES Paris offers programs that flip the script:

20% theory, 80% hands-on learning – with real projects, teamwork, and direct problem-solving.

 

We don’t sell diplomas — we create professionals who are ready to lead.

Our Vision – Building the Present for a Better Future

At AES Paris, our vision is simple: stay real, stay close to our students, and focus on what the world actually needs.

 

We don’t make grand promises. We don’t sell dreams. We prepare people — practically, humanely, and intelligently — for the future of work and life.

 

We adapt to each individual, giving everyone a fair chance to succeed. That means:

Adaptability

Learning for everyone

Human-centered teaching

Awareness of reality

Knowledge sharing

No artificial time limits

Global mindset

Less theory, more practice

Career creation

Vision

Our Mission – Fixing the Gap Between School and the Real World

Mission

Today, students finish 5 years of study — and still feel unprepared for real work. There’s a growing disconnect between what schools teach and what companies need.

 

At AES Paris, we’ve built our programs to solve this gap:

 

The problem:

 

  • Generations no longer understand each other — and can’t work together.

  • Young professionals feel “unrecognized” despite years of study.

  • Companies often ignore diplomas and retrain hires from scratch.

 

 

Our response:

We teach by doing. We focus on group projects, industry collaborations, and skills that make sense in today’s economy. Our programs evolve constantly based on employer feedback and real-world demands.

Our Principles – What We Stand For

Adaptability

We evolve with the world and the individual. No one-size-fits-all paths. Just smart learning that adapts to who you are and what’s ahead.

Awareness of reality

We don’t teach in a bubble. Our programs are built from feedback — from students, teachers, employers, and international partners.

Global mindset

The world is interconnected. That’s why all our programs are in English, welcoming students from every continent and preparing them to work across borders.

For everyone

Learning should be inclusive. AES Paris is a space where ideas, cultures, and experiences collide — creating a better future for all.

 

Sharing Knowledge

We learn faster when we learn together. Collaboration isn’t optional — it’s the foundation of innovation.

 

Less Theory, More Practice

Our students don’t just take notes — they run tests, lead teams, pitch ideas, and get real results. Every project is a “test and learn” loop.

 

Human training

In an AI-driven world, human skills matter more than ever. We train not just minds, but empathy, expression, and emotional intelligence.

 

No time limit

Learning shouldn’t be rushed or standardized. Our model respects each student’s pace — because the goal isn’t speed, it’s depth and impact.

 

Creating careers

We give students more than a diploma — we give them the confidence, skills, and network to thrive in whatever future they choose..
