Brice PIGOT

I’m Brice Pigot, a 2nd-year student in the English-speaking AERO Prep program at IPSA.

Having been fascinated by space since high school, I chose this post-baccalaureate school to train directly in aerospace engineering, a sector where innovation is constant.

The atmosphere at IPSA is serious but benevolent, and the associative life is very rich. I’m a member of Aéro IPSA, where I worked on the EOLE rocket, and today I’m in charge of the MROM project, from design to budget management. These projects have enabled me to learn 3D modeling, PCB design, welding and team management.

I also took part in an environmental project: recycling airsoft balls into filament for 3D printers, a technical challenge that caught the attention of partner companies.

I haven’t done any internships or international mobility yet, but IPSA is actively preparing us for that.
Later on, I’m aiming for a PhD or a project linked to space launchers like Ariane 6.

Any advice for future students? Go for it, even if you don’t have a background in aeronautics. Curiosity and commitment are the keys to success here.
