The Ingénieur Polytechnicien programme is a four-year master-level engineering degree taught in French. Three years on campus lead to the Master of Engineering, Science and Technology, and a fourth year, which can be spent at another campus in France or abroad, leads to the final Diploma of Ecole Polytechnique.
Faculty: Ingénieur Polytechnicien Programme | Duration: 4 years | Study mode: full-time; taught in French | Intake: September | Location: Palaiseau, Île-de-France, France
Years 1 and 2 give a multidisciplinary scientific foundation in six of eight disciplines (pure and applied mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, mechanics, economics, computer science), with humanities, languages, sport and military training. In Year 3 students choose one of 15 scientific specialisation tracks (for example mathematics, physics, computer science, artificial intelligence, energy, economics, biology, entrepreneurship, public affairs) and complete a five-month research internship. Year 4 is a specialised engineering or master's programme in France or abroad, or senior civil service training for EU citizens.
Graduates work in public and private sectors; more than one third of graduates continue to doctoral study.
Admission is by competitive entrance examination in two steps (admissibility and admission), through one of four tracks: classes préparatoires (CPGE), French University (UNIV-FUF), International University (UNIV-FUI, the only track that can be taken in English) and International University with French education (UNIV-FUI-FF).
