The Master is mostly taught in English, some courses are taught in French from the second semester. No knowledge of French is required to enter the master. However, students must reach the B2 level in French Language (according to CEFRL) in order to obtain their degree. Students will benefit from intensive French language lessons all along the program.
During internships, students apply their scientific knowledge and practical skills to real industrial projects and gain solid experience.
The Master includes two internships. The first one takes place in the 1st year and lasts 4 weeks minimum. The second internship lasts one semester; it will most likely lead the student to a first job.
In order to find an internship, students receive support to create contacts that will enable them to find an internship. This internship can be done in any country.
Every two years, IPSA and the pooling institute IPSOS conduct a survey called "Observatory on air and space jobs". This survey provides an overview of companies' future recruitment intentions.
This survey responds to the natural concern of any school of engineers, i.e. understand the current reality and the transformations to come from domains, sectors, and professions. A sample of 200 managers of companies in the aeronautics and space sector have been interviewed in order to better understand their expectations and the needs of our graduates.
Updated course list will be sent to nominated students along the application procedure.
