Upon completion of the 5-year program, the student is rewarded with the official “diplôme d’ingénieur” equivalent to a Master’s Engineering Degree recognized internationally.

All 5 years are mandatory in order to obtain the degree.   

The program is delivered in English and it is organized according to the French system.   

The 5-year program is a 2+3, which means that it includes:   

  • 2 years of fundamentals (classe préparatoire) with in-depth studies of Basics Sciences, Engineering Sciences and a touch of Aeronautics
    • Mathematics, Physics, Flight mechanics, Electronics, Algorithms etc.  
  • 3 years of Aeronautical Engineering courses and specializations  
    • in the 4th year the student will choose 1 major between Vehicles Major and Signals & Systems Major and different options 

LEARNING APPROACH

The program is based on a balance between academic and practical activities: lectures, tutorials, seminars, design consultancy, projects related to industrial environments, and internships.   

The first 2 years involve many hours of study. Beginning with the 3rd and especially the 4th year, the student is the main actor in their training by choosing a major and different options allowing them to personalize their courses and obtain expertise in a field of their choice.   

Business conferences and international openness provide additional skills in building student’s critical thinking and ability to make decisions.
