Why Study Engineering in French ?
To prove the adaptability to a new environment by joining the French system,
More than a pure academic exchange,National Degrees internationally recognized in the L (B),M,D, Dual Degrees,Mixed classes, with local students (both ways of exchanges),Language practice (2 or 3 languages),Discover of the culture (history, traditions, political and social organization, arts, sports …),Placements in companies to discover the way of working, of thinking, of living, etc.,
In opposition to the adaptation of the local system to the “clients”,The two systems may co-exist in the same institute for different purposes
