(
1. The Ecole Centrale Marseille
• What is a Grande Ecole
d’Ingénieurs?
that train highly selected students to occupy
key positions as engineer-managers in a wide
range of industries and public administrations in
France and abroad.
An original feature of the French system of higher education in science and technology is that
there are in fact two parallel systems: the universities, and the Grandes Ecoles d’Ingénieurs
The particular features of the Grandes Ecoles
include:
■
highly selective admissions procedures ;
■ top-level teaching staff that includes a mix of
academics, professionals from business and industry and consultants;
■
courses that are closely tailored to match the
present and future requirements of industry and
business in France and abroad ;
■
Company and industrial placements, and
student projects commissioned by companies ;
■
a staff-student ratio that enables students’ progress to be closely monitored ;
■ a wide range of extra-curricular activities: the arts, cultural activities, voluntary
work, sports and pre-professional projects
(student-run Junior Companies, etc.) ;
■
a strong esprit de corps, fostered by
influential alumni associations .
)
■ The Ecole Centrale Marseille is a Grande
Ecole d’Ingénieurs, set up in 2003-2004 by the
fusion of four engineering schools, the oldest of
which was founded in the 1890s.
The Ecole Centrale are among the most prestigious of the French Grandes Ecoles d’Ingénieurs,
offering an M.Sc. level postgraduate degree in
science, engineering and management (Diplôme
d’Ingénieur). Centrale Marseille students are recruited from among the successful candidates
in the Centrale-SUPELEC competitive entrance
examination after a preparatory two-year undergraduate course in maths, physics and chemistry
(the Classes Préparatoires).
The International Relations of the Ecoles Centrale are co-ordinated by Centrale InternationalCentral Graduate School.
