Engineering ith its long tradition of excellence in training and research, Fren
Engineering ith its long tradition of excellence in training and research, French engineering evokes the great builders – Philibert le Roy and the Palace of Versailles, Sébastien Vauban and military fortifications, Ferdinand de Lesseps and the Suez canal, Gustave Eiffel and his grand metal structures (including the tower bearing his name), or Auguste Bartholdi and the Statue of Liberty. These inventors and builders have shaped the image of France. More recently, Michel Virlogeux designed the Milau viaduct that was inaugurated in 2004, while teams of French engineers made essential contributions to innovative forms of transportation such as high-speed rail (1971) and the Airbus A380 (2005). Trained in France’s renowned Écoles d’Ingénieurs (engineering schools), French engineers work in all fields of engineering: logistics, telecommunications, materials, energy, information technology, civil engineering, construction, public works, agri-food, chemistry, and more. They are sought out by firms in France and abroad. French engineering programs always include the managerial, international, and multidisciplinary aspects of the profession through the study of economics, the humanities and social sciences, communication, and culture. More and more programs are taught in English, proficiency in which is assessed prior to graduation.

The diplôme d’ingénieur is the professional qualification for practice as an engineer in France. It is a national diploma recognized as the equivalent of a national master (120 ECTS credits). Holders of the degree may apply to doctoral programs. Institutions accredited to confer the dîplome d’ingénieur are reviewed every 6 years by CTI, the French national commission on engineering degrees. • www.cti-commission.fr>Chercher un programme d’ingénieur habilité French engineering programs embrace the managerial and international dimensions of the profession through multidisciplinary instruction that includes the humanities, the social sciences, management, communication, and international studies. Close links between schools of engineering and corporations open many internship opportunities. Students may elect to spend a year working for a firm in France or abroad between the first and second years of the engineering curriculum. The nature of their work may be research, analysis, or expert consulting. Knowledge of English is required. Some engineering schools also require a second or even a third foreign language. • Information on master’s degrees in engineering in France: www.campusfrance.org> Espace documentaire>Offre de formation>Fiches diplômes NOTE The French diplôme d’ingénieur is recognized as the equivalent of a U.S. Master in Engineering by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admission Officers (AACRAO) and appears in AACRAO’s Electronic Database for Global Education: http://edge.aacrao.org Master Universities and engineering schools both offer programs leading to a 2-year master in engineering.

Thirty different Mastère Spécialisé programs in various cutting-edge areas are taught wholly or partly in English. Costs of such programs vary widely and may exceed several thousand euros per year. • Information on MS degrees: www.campusfrance.org/fr/ressource/les-masteres-specialises-ms • List of MS programs: www.cge.asso.fr/nos-labels/ms Specialized training programs Some engineering schools offer 1- and 2-year programs that enable holders of a diplôme d’ingénieur to earn a diploma accredited by CTI. Licence level Master level Beyond the master level Doctorate (M2 +3 years of higher education) Holders of a master or diplôme d’ingénieur may apply to a doctoral program. About a dozen French doctoral departments focus on some aspect of engineering, preparing graduate students for careers in public and private research organizations or in corporate R&D. Research is performed in a variety of disciplines and fields—among them aeronautics, automation, bioengineering, instrumentation, nanotechnologies, computer-aided manufacturing, robotics, and systems. Brevet de Technicien Supérieur (BTS, technical certificate) (Secondary diploma + 3 years of higher education) – L2 The BTS ATI (engineering technical assistant) is offered by private and public secondary schools. The program consists of technical coursework and hands-on learning (internships). BTS graduates may elect to apply to a school of engineering directly on the basis of their BTS record or by completing a preparatory course and earning the ATS (adaptation technicien supérieur) and then passing the entrance exam required by certain Grandes Écoles. It is also possible to earn a professional licence at a university. Preparatory programs There are three types of preparatory programs: CPGE (Grande École preparatory course), a 2-year program offered by secondary schools that prepares students for the entrance exam required for admission to Grandes Écoles of engineering. Integrated preparatory courses are available at some 60 engineering schools (offering 150+ programs with space for 9,500 students). These admit secondary graduates into their in-house preparatory programs, with policies and procedures unique to each institution. Common preparatory programs used by 80 schools: - Cycle Préparatoire Polytechnique: www.la-prepa-des-inp.fr - CPI (integrated preparatory programs) administered by networks of schools: www.19ecolesdechimie.com - University-based science preparatory programs for applicants uploads/Ingenierie_Lourd/ ingenieur-en.pdf
