International student morning
This event, organized by the International Development and Partnerships team with the help of international students, is one of the highlights of the school year.
Its double objective is to promote engineering students’ and apprentices’ international mobility and to highlight the school’s cultural diversity.
Its double objective is to promote engineering students’ and apprentices’ international mobility and to highlight the school’s cultural diversity.
Every October, the international student morning puts the spotlight on ENSTA Bretagne’s international students and provides engineering students and apprentices with the information they need to pursue their studies abroad.
Exploring other cultures
In the ENSTA Bretagne lobby, international students studying at the school give French students a taste of their local cuisine and culture and share information about different educational, administrative and business systems as well as customs and traditions.
Numerous countries are represented each year, including Brazil, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Cameroon, Lebanon, Germany, Norway and Portugal.
Preparing to go abroad
This key campus event provides an opportunity for students and apprentices to explore options for studying abroad.
Whether through an internship or an exchange in a partner establishment, all ENSTA Bretagne students and apprentices must complete a stay in another country during their studies. On average, students spend 6 months abroad.
The international student event helps them to prepare for this experience and to decide which destinations are best suited to the field they wish to specialize in.
Teaching staff, the international relations team and students who have already been abroad share their experiences in information sessions and one-to-one discussions.
International academic partners
ENSTA Bretagne has established numerous European and international bilateral agreements both to provide our students with opportunities to study abroad (for an internship, a single semester or a full school year) and to host international students. Some of these agreements include PhD programs and research professorships.

International awareness
A compulsory period abroad which can be accomplished during the professional period and/or the academic period
During a professional period…
This sequence can be one of two different options ;
- When the apprentice is within an international group, he can ask to carry out a mission in one of the foreign offices or a subsidiary.
- If he is in a smaller structure, the employer can grant a leave of absence to his apprentice. In this case, the experience could take place in a university, a state body, or a company. Ideally, the mission should be in relation with the specialist field of the student.
And/or an academic period
The last academic training sequence (in the 3rd year) from September to Mid-February can be substituted by a training period in one of ENSTA Bretagne’s partner universities.
Youna, 2014 graduate
In the last year, I was lucky enough to take a substitution year in Denmark at the DTU University. They offered a course on naval architecture, on materials…It was a great experience! I discovered a new country and a new way of life.
We were five in our class so had excellent mentoring. We worked 8 hours a day, 3 days/week and we also had a lot of projects, which all added up to a very full week.
I strongly recommend other students try this experience which was very positive. In the first month, I needed a little time to feel at ease speaking in English, then, I felt really good, well received and well mentored.
Coming to study at ENSTA Bretagne
Each year, ENSTA Bretagne welcomes numerous students from around the world. They enroll in the same programs as French students: engineering program, Master’s and Advanced Master’s degree programs. An international student welcome event is organized at the start of the school year.
