After a scientific baccalaureate with the Engineering Sciences option, I joined IPSA as a post-bac student in 2019.

Over the years, I focused on the mechanics and structures of aerospace vehicles, before leaving in 5th year for a double degree at the University of Sherbrooke, Quebec, in Mechanical Engineering. I also spent a semester at Heriot-Watt University in Scotland. These experiences gave me a lot, both on a human and professional level.

What attracted me to IPSA was the opportunity to go straight into an engineering course without having to go through a CPGE, while retaining a wide range of choices for what comes next. Aeronautics has always fascinated me: it’s a sector that’s technical, demanding and constantly evolving.

But above and beyond the courses, IPSA has enabled me to develop my full potential thanks to its rich community life. I founded the IPSA Dive diving association, ran the school’s humanitarian association and organized numerous solidarity events.

The atmosphere is friendly and dynamic, and students help each other out.

I was also able to put my skills into practice during several internships, most recently at Dassault Falcon Service, as a Methods and Tooling engineer. Today, I work for Safran Aircraft Engines in engine testing.

If you’re looking for a school that combines high academic standards, an international outlook and real student life, I think IPSA is an excellent choice. Personally, I’d do it again without hesitation.
