MSc in Engineering
ParisTech engineering schools provide their students with an in-depth education in engineering science and solid expertise in the scientific field. They also offer management courses focusing on vital skills for young graduates preparing to enter the professional arena.
Strong points
The engineering schools’ main strengths are:
- Rigorous selection process and limited numbers mean students get individual attention;
- Excellence in mathematics and computer sciences, both essential tools for today’s engineer: these subjects form part of a core curriculum and can lead on to more in-depth work;
- Multidisciplinary studies and acquisition of working methods and techniques that enable engineers to master technological developments;
- Openness to economics, management and communication;
- Teaching staff comprising permanent teacher-researchers and active professionals;
- Diverse and flexible teaching methods drawing from conferences as well as group work, case studies, individual and team projects.
They also bring students:
- Personal experience of industry thanks to training courses and internships in industry;
- International receptivity and a marked interest in current events.
Close links with industry and business
The Grand Ecoles have always kept close ties with companies. Obligatory internships lasting a total of 16 months punctuate the study period. Interaction between university research laboratories and company R&D centres facilitates innovation and the transfer of technology.
High level of international openness
This is based on:
- Working knowledge of several foreign languages in preparation for international activity, including English, in which students must be fluent;
- A high proportion of teachers from overseas;
- Study trips and internships abroad, either in the form of a double diploma or validation of academic years or credits from foreign partner universities, which fit in with the course of the original university;
- Membership of European and international networks, which facilitate student and teacher exchanges;
- Research cooperation between ParisTech colleges and their foreign partners;
- Admission of foreign students at different levels of the course, resulting in a culture mix. These foreign students take courses in French at ParisTech.
