Dear Graduates,
The major transformations taking place across our sectors serve as a daily reminder of the importance of combining academic excellence, innovation, and human commitment. The initiatives presented in this newsletter perfectly illustrate the ambition that drives IFP School.
In this edition, we first revisit a topic that is already transforming our professions, our ways of learning, and our teaching practices: generative artificial intelligence.
Aware of the considerable opportunities it offers, but also of the questions it raises, IFP School, as a member of the RESDD (Network of Higher Education Institutions for Sustainable Development), is actively engaged in a collective reflection aimed at promoting the responsible use of these technologies. Through the participation of our Digital Ambassador, Jérémy Demolliens, in a dedicated working group, the School has contributed to defining reference frameworks to support developments in teaching, assessment, and knowledge production.
We are also celebrating the commitment of our students with the creation of a new association: “IFP Students”. Beyond the technical passion that drives its two founding members, David Melin and Henri-Louis Wacheux, this initiative carries a strong spirit of solidarity: upgrading vehicles to take part in humanitarian rallies, putting the skills acquired at the School to work in concrete, meaningful projects. An approach that reflects our students’ desire to combine expertise, adventure, and positive impact. To carry out their projects, they are reaching out to you!
This collective dynamic is also expressed through actions taken in support of student life. The daily commitment of Mélanie Bernard, Student Relations Manager, helps enrich the student experience, strengthen ties within the IFP School community, and foster an environment conducive to both personal development and academic success.
These three examples, though different in nature, share a common thread: they reflect your School’s commitment to preparing the talents of tomorrow by cultivating skills, responsibility, and collective engagement.
I hope you enjoy reading this new edition and warmly thank all those—students, graduates, faculty, and colleagues—who contribute every day to keeping the spirit of IFP School alive.
Wishing you all a wonderful summer!
Best regards,
Pascal LONGUEMARE, PhD
