INSEEC's values, like most other French Grande Ecoles, revolve around the humanism of the French Enlightenment era and the School of Thought of French Humanism as well as the French Renaissance. As such, French Grande Ecole Educational Institutions follow principles of universalism, knowledge emancipation and Cartesianism, following the influence of the French Encyclopedists of the 17th century.{{Citation needed|date=January 2023}}

This has led to pedagogic influences into INSEEC's Grande Ecole curriculum such as the compulsory "humanist internship", as part of which students have to carry out a work placement in a charity or an association.{{Cite book|last=Guiomard|first=Gwenole|title=Les métiers après les écoles de commerce|publisher=Hobson|year=2006|isbn=2-84555-134-7|location=France|pages=181}} Other pedagogic unique features of Grande Ecole and INSEEC which are typically French and ensue from the French Enlightenment: the teaching of general culture which represents a third of the first year Grande Ecole curriculum for Freshmen. Double-degrees in law, anthropology, philosophy and humanities in general is also possible via partnerships with Bordeaux University or the UVSQ (Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines University / University of Versailles / University of Paris Saclay).{{Cite web |date=2014-03-25 |title=INSEEC : Grande Ecole, grande culture |url=https://grandes-ecoles.studyrama.com/espace-prepas/reportages-dans-les-ecoles/inseec-business-school/inseec-grande-ecole-grande-culture-3725.html |access-date=2023-04-04 |website=Studyrama Grandes Ecoles |language=fr}}

One of the prerequesite of a Grande Ecole (along with having the Grande Ecole-label), is to select students via national competitive examinations. The latter are well-acknowledged to be particularly stringent.{{Cite web |title=Education in France; a selective system based on maths; universities and "grandes écoles"; the French educational system; the Shanghai trauma |url=http://www.understandfrance.org/France/Education.html |access-date=2022-08-15 |website=www.understandfrance.org}}{{Cite web |last1=Management |first1=IESEG School of |last2=ANDREOSSO |first2=Anais |title=French Education System |url=https://www.ieseg.fr/en/life-at-ieseg/practical-information/french-education-system/ |access-date=2022-08-15 |website=IÉSEG |language=en-US}} While students prepare for these National Competitive examinations right after their high school diploma (often obtained with a magna cum laude or summa cum laude) during a two-year preparatory programme in high schools proposing such curricula; some other students will start an Undergraduate or Bachelor's degree and prepare for the national Competitive examinations along their studies at Universities or private Colleges in France or abroad. Both pathways have their own advantages and drawbacks.

For candidates coming from preparatory classes, the French national competitive examinations are organised in pools of examinations (Banque de Concours d'Épreuves). INSEEC belongs to the BCE pool.{{Cite web |title=Les écoles {{!}} Concours BCE |url=https://www.concours-bce.com/les-ecoles |access-date=2020-02-24 |website=www.concours-bce.com}} Grande Ecoles only deliver master's degree, with curricula which vary from 3 years up to 2 years (3 years, after successful completion of the national competitive examinations after an Undergraduate Degree-level; 2 years after successful completion of the national entrance competitive examination at a Bachelor-Degree level).{{Cite web |title=LES BANQUES D'ÉPREUVES DES CONCOURS – CPGE-ECT : la voie d'excellence des bacheliers STMG |url=https://www.prepaect-estienne-d-orves.ac-nice.fr/le-concours-quelles-epreuves-et-quel-taux-de-reussite/organisation-des-concours/ |access-date=2023-04-06 |website=www.prepaect-estienne-d-orves.ac-nice.fr}}

The most selective will enroll less than 10% of candidates, i.e. 90% of candidates are bound to fail, not because they are perform poorly, but because a handful of students performed better, which is in itself, the principle of a competitive examination. In some Grande Ecole, it is possible to retake a Grande Ecole national competitive examination as many as one wishes, whereas some others limit the possibilities to retake the examination to a maximum of three times.{{Cite web |last=Cnam |title=Examen d'admission à l'école d'ingénieur du Cnam {{!}} Laboratoire industries agroalimentaires {{!}} Cnam |url=https://iaa.cnam.fr/enseignements/examen-d-admission-a-l-ecole-d-ingenieur-du-cnam-90139.kjsp?RH=biochens |access-date=2023-04-06 |website=Laboratoire industries agroalimentaires |language=fr-FR}}

During the first Grande Ecole academic year, which is the equivalent of a Bachelor (sometimes referred to in French as Licence 3 or abbreviated L3),{{Cite web |title=French degrees, LMD system and equivalences |url=https://www.campusfrance.org/en/French-degrees-LMD-equivalences |access-date=2022-08-15 |website=Campus France |language=en}} an induction week will take place, followed by a typical student orientation.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}

Throughout this week, groups of students will have to work out a project, not obviously dealing with business and economics, which will have to be presented along with a report in front of a panel of professors. The goal is to foster group work, team spirit, break the ice among first year students, meet milestones deliverables and train student to defend a thesis in front of a jury, in an academic and corporate way.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}

At the end of the first year, students have to complete the "Corporate Ethnological Mission". As part of this mission, students form groups and have to draw lots for a randomised subject, which they will have to study in an ethnological fashion. The students' group will be chaperoned by a professor and will have to deliver a Thesis-like report after thorough experts' interviews and literature research, which will be defended in front of a jury during a Viva Voce.{{Cite web|title=Année 1 - Licence 3|url=https://grandeecole.inseec.com/fr/programme/annee1-licence3/|access-date=2021-02-02|website=INSEEC Grande Ecole|language=fr-FR}}{{Cite web|title=1st year – Bachelor 3 (L3) – Think better to do well|url=https://grandeecole.inseec.com/en/program/year1-bachelor3/|access-date=2021-02-02|website=INSEEC Grande Ecole|language=en-US}}

The Grande Ecole INSEEC School of Business and Economics proposes an elective one-week intensive military training with the National Active Non-Commissioned Officers School (ENSOA), a French military academy.{{Cite web |title=École nationale des sous-officiers d'active |url=https://www.defense.gouv.fr/terre/l-armee-de-terre/le-niveau-divisionnaire/commandement-rh-formation/ecole-nationale-des-sous-officiers-d-active/presentation |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200224145425/https://www.defense.gouv.fr/terre/l-armee-de-terre/le-niveau-divisionnaire/commandement-rh-formation/ecole-nationale-des-sous-officiers-d-active/presentation |archive-date=2020-02-24 |access-date=2020-02-24 |website=Ministère des Armées |language=fr}} This military training often takes place at the end of the first Grande Ecole academic year.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}

During the first year, students will study from scratch or study again the fundamentals of Business and Management until the first semester of the second academic year, as some new enrolled students do not always have an academic background in business studies. Indeed, as long as you pass the National selective examination with a successfully validated undergraduate degree or bachelor's degree, you can get enrolled in a Grande Ecole.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}} General culture plays a prominent role in the first year of the Grande Ecole curriculum and represents a third of all classes.

Studying in a partner university abroad, or on one INSEEC's campuses abroad is possible during the first year.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}

During the second semester of the second academic year, students can specialize in a major of their own liking: Corporate Finance and Accounting, Market Finance, Strategic Marketing, Operational Marketing, Communication and Public Relations, Entrepreneurship and Innovation Management. Further Specialization is possible too in terms of Languages (Japanese, Russian, Chinese, Arabic) or else. Studying abroad is possible during this year too, so is studying in another university branch of the OMNES Education group.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}

During, the second year, INSEEC organises across all its campuses an INSEEC Business Games too.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}File:ENSOA Bastille Day 2013 Paris t110157.jpg (The French National Active Non-Commissioned Officers School)]]

During this third and last year, students who remained in France have a strong academic focus on their major during the first semester. During this same semester, Professor-Researchers from their respective INSEEC laboratories will teach quantitive and qualitative tools for research-purposes, in order to prepare students in advance for their Grande Ecole Master's Thesis; before the start of the second semester, during which students will carry out their last compulsory internship. At the end of the INSEEC Grande Ecole curriculum, students must have carried out a minimum of 11 months of compulsory internship (with an average of 11,82 months during the academic years 2017 and 2020) and a maximum of 41 months; and must have spent at least 6 months abroad, without exceeding a maximum of 41 months either.{{Cite web |title=INSEEC grande école, campus de Bordeaux, Bordeaux (33) - l'Etudiant |url=https://www.letudiant.fr/etudes/annuaire-enseignement-superieur/etablissement/etablissement-inseec-business-school-campus-de-bordeaux-4585.html#classement-des-grandes-ecoles-de-commerce |access-date=2022-08-15 |website=www.letudiant.fr}}

The third Grande Ecole academic year is also the main year (but not the only one) for Erasmus exchanges, semesters abroad and Double-Master's Degrees with partner universities.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}

Since 2007,{{Cite web|date=2019-12-10|title=27 élèves magistrats ont participé à la 12e Nuit de la crise|url=https://www.enm.justice.fr/actu-10122019-27-eleves-magistrats-ont-participe-la-12e-nuit-de-la-crise|access-date=2021-01-29|website=École nationale de la magistrature|language=fr}} during the third academic year, the Crisis Management Night takes place, during which students are trained to react to crisis situations. Students will come to the School's campus at 10pm and until dawn will have to form groups in order to solve problems, following pre-defined scenarios prepared by the faculty. Changes to the scenario happen every hour and students must provide deliverables throughout the night, as per defined milestones. Students studying abroad from a partner university are exempted from this programme. Students from other Higher Education Institutions, such as the student magistrates from the Bordeaux National School for the Judiciary (in French: Ecole National de la Magistrature) are invited to the Crisis Night.

Along those lines, as part of the main final examinations at INSEEC, a Viva Voce, in French: Grand Oral (often abbreviated as: Grand O') must be taken in order to complete graduation, during which every students will randomly be attributed a subject to present and defend in front of a jury.{{Cite web|title=Grand Oral INSEEC|url=http://www.paperblog.fr/2078886/grand-oral-inseec/|access-date=2020-02-24|website=Paperblog|language=fr}} Many Grandes Ecoles use Grande Oral as part of their selective examinations or final examinations.{{Cite web|date=2017-01-06|title=Grand Oral {{!}} Sciences Po Students|url=http://grand-oral.html/|access-date=2020-02-24|website=grand-oral.html|language=en}}{{Cite web|date=2015-06-03|title=Le grand oral d'HEC|url=https://grandes-ecoles.studyrama.com/espace-prepas/concours/oraux/le-grand-oral-d-hec-3191.html|access-date=2020-02-24|website=Studyrama Grandes Ecoles|language=fr}}

INSEEC Business School ranked 7th out of 60 universities in a ranking from Canévet & Associates, a French consultancy.{{Cite web|date=2017-05-19|title=#LinkedInTopCompanies: quelles écoles et universités pour y entrer ?|url=https://canevetetassocies.fr/2017/05/19/top-25-employeurs-plus-attractifs-france-francais-universite-ecole-y-entrer/|access-date=2020-10-08|website=Canévet et Associés|language=fr-FR}} The main criterion of the ranking was the employability of alumni in the top 25 most attractive companies in France.

In the table below, the Grande Ecole INSEEC School of Business & Economics ranks in average 21st (weighted arithmetic mean) best Grande Ecole Business School in France from 2008 until 2022 by the following magazines, consulting companies and institutions: L'Etudiant Magazine, Le Figaro, Challenges, Le Point, Le Parisien, SMBG / Eduniversal, SIGEM (French Integration System for Grandes Ecoles of Management via Preparatory Classes).

INSEEC's worst ranking was given by the French magazine Le Point for the year 2009: 36th and best ranked by the French magazine Challenge in 2008: 12th followed by the French daily Newspaper Le Parisien in 2012 and again in 2013 (13th). All maximum ranking values are written in bold in the chart below, for each issuer, and all worst rankings are underlined. The total amount of French Grande Ecole Business Schools fluctuates yearly owing to several reasons. First, the Grande Ecole parent organisation (Conférence des Grandes Ecoles) has been continuously integrating new members by bestowing its Grande Ecole-label upon these new Business Schools. Second, along this phenomenon, the French Grande Ecole Business Schools' landscape has witnessed an unprecedented trend of inter-schools mergers and acquisitions. In short, the average total number of French Grande Ecole Business Schools oscillates up to roughly 40 Schools, but can overtake this value. For instance, in its ranking published in the year 1999, Le Nouvel Economiste ranked up to 51 Grande Ecole Business Schools.{{Cite web |title=Classement Le Nouvel Economiste 1999 - Ecoles2commerce.com |url=https://www.ecoles2commerce.com/classements/le-nouvel-economiste/1999 |access-date=2023-04-13 |website=www.ecoles2commerce.com}}

Other sister-Business Schools of the INSEEC School of Business & Economics, such as the EBS - European Business School (European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD) -accredited) ranked 92nd best worldwide in the professional ranking of world universities compiled by the French Engineering Grande Ecole Paris Mines in 2011.{{Cite web |title=Highly-ranked French engineering school - MINES PARISTECH |url=https://mines-paristech.eu/About-us/Rankings/professional-ranking/ |access-date=2023-03-09 |website=mines-paristech.eu}}{{Cite web |title=PROFESSIONAL RANKING OF WORLD UNIVERSITIES |url=https://www.minesparis.psl.eu/Donnees/data03/334-10.-Classements.pdf}} This ranking is based on the number of alumni currently holding the position of CEO in one of the 500 largest companies in the world according to the Fortune Global 500 ranking established by the American business magazine Fortune.

Similarly to many French Grande Ecoles, INSEEC School of Business & Economics hosts more than 30 students' associations on-campus which spans a wide array of missions: charity, gourmet food, wine, sports, arts, digital media, debate, video games, to cite a few.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}

Any students on-campus can vote to elect a team led by a president and vice-president for each BDE, BDS and BDA. The BDE is in charge of organising students' life in general, for example: students' well-being on-campus, discounts at local restaurants or shops around the school, students' night life. The BDS and BDA embody a similar role but will organise activities: Sports for the BDS (sports events, students' rugby league, sailing classes, cruises & events for students of the OMNES Education's Schools, sailing competitions against other Grande Ecoles such as The EDHEC Sailing Cup ("ESC") (Course Croisière EDHEC or "CCE" in French) is the leading student sporting event in Europe and the world's biggest intercollegiate offshore regatta) and the Arts for the BDA (on-campus concerts, events, visits of museums, cinema on-campus, classes of theatrical performance at the National Theatre of Bordeaux).{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}File:37edhec GS 1.jpg: the leading students sporting event in Europe and the world's biggest intercollegiate offshore regatta. ]]{{citation needed|date=March 2023}}

As usual in most Grande Ecole, a Gala soirée is organised once every academic year - not to be confused with the graduation ceremony. Usually, an on-campus student association is solely dedicated to organise this annual event.

Incub'INSEEC will provide infrastructures, workshops, conferences, commodities, communication networks in order to underpin students' and alumni's nascent entrepreneurial projects. Junior Entreprise follow a different set of rules and prerequisites. Unlike companies stemming from Innov'INSEEC, they are no spin-offs. They are dedicated to students in order to sharpen their entrepreunarial spirit and put into practise their theoretical knowledge. As such, students will have to carry out assignments (called missions) for local customers, such as accountancy and finance audits, consulting services in communication and marketing.{{Citation|title=Junior-Entreprise|date=2020-06-10|url=https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Junior-Entreprise&oldid=171865851|work=Wikipédia|language=fr|access-date=2020-09-27}} Another distinctive feature of Junior Entreprise: they need to pass several years of testing and audits in order to be certified by a National Organisation as Junior Entreprise. They are bestowed upon this accreditation by the French National Confederation of Junior Enterprises (in French: Confédération nationale des Junior-Entreprises - CNJE) founded in 1969.{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}

The Research Laboratories of the Grande Ecole INSEEC School of Business & Economics are part of a larger construct involving the whole OMNES Education. The Research Network of OMNES Education involves Grande Ecole Business Schools & Engineering Schools throughout several French & European Research Laboratories. The research topics revolve around the OMNES Education's core specialties and academic offer. The cornerstones of Research at INSEEC are twofold: multidisciplinarity and transversal syllabi, in order to foster knowledge cross-seeding and bridge synergies between laboratories and faculty staff.{{Cite web|title=Home page|url=https://recherche.inseec.com/en/|access-date=2021-01-22|website=Recherche|language=en-US}} The PI-ECE (ECE-Lyon Interdisciplinary Program), focusing on Smart City sensors, exemplifies these two pillars well.{{Cite web|title=ECE, Engineering School|url=https://recherche.inseec.com/en/centres-de-recherche/ece-2/|access-date=2021-01-22|website=Recherche|language=en-US}}

In total, there are five research laboratories for nine campuses, which involve around 120 Research Professors. During the first year of the Grande Ecole Master's Degree, students can carry out an introductory course in the form of a pedagogic project (called in French Mission de Recherche, in English: Research Mission), in a research subject of their own liking amongst the INSEEC research specialities, where the-said students will be chaperoned by a Professor Researcher during several weeks. The final project will have to be defended in front of a panel of INSEEC's researchers and professors during a Viva Voce, including the submission of a report written in a research article fashion. The same year, in other words in the run-up of the final Grande Ecole year, students are also trained by Professor Researchers to use quantitative and qualitative research tools in order to carry out and analyse as well as defend their Master's Thesis in front of a Jury, as part of the Grande Ecole final Viva Voce, which takes place along the so-called Grand Oral (Viva Voce of General Culture and often abbreviated in French as Grand O).{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}
