The grandes écoles are France's prestigious higher education establishments with a tough selection process following a two-year university or preparatory course (classes préparatoires). They include l'Ecole Polytechnique and l'Ecole Centrale, which train engineers, and l'Ecole des Hautes Etudes commerciales (HEC) which teaches management and economics. Graduates usually achieve high positions in business or government.
