With this in mind, each year, the School runs the EAE High School Baccalaureate Awards, specially aimed at for students in the last year of high school or an advanced vocation program. In view of the situation we currently face, we have extended the deadline for submission and you now have until 1st May to hand in your project. Ready for it?
This year, the projects related to the business world, the economy and marketing will be taking part so, if you are currently taking the second year of the High School Baccalaureate, like a challenge and want to conquer the world with your business prowess, this is your opportunity!
The students selected will be announced on 15th May and the three finalists will give their presentations on 4th June. In the event that it is not possible for the students to give their presentations to the academic panel at the EAE Campus, they will do so online..
What is EAE’s High School Baccalaureate Award all about?
It is a great opportunity to win grants for Bachelor Degree programs at EAE, a leading business school setting the standard in education thanks to its unique and innovative methodology. We want to reward the creativity and entrepreneurship of young people who are completing the first stage of their education, giving them the opportunity to freely express their initiative in the academic world. The competition involves carrying out a research project focusing on a business plan or related to the world of business or economics.

The 6th edition of EAE’s High School Baccalaureate Award is open to all students taking the second year of the High School Baccalaureate or the last year of a vocational training program at a school in Spain.
What kind of projects can participate?
