Foy’z: the students’ common room
DAY/Billiards, table football, large sofas, the place is ideal for a break with your friends.
NIGHT/ Many theme evenings are organized attracting up to 250 people
The Foy’z is a friendly place where everyone is welcome. Respecting the building and other people is essential and all the team are there to keep an eye on things. More than just the venue for the unforgettable freshers’ evenings, it rapidly becomes the best place to share some quality time with your friends. We have fun, we chat, we take advantage of the billiards and table football, or just relax watching a good film on a Sunday evening. All that just a few meters away from your room in the hall of residence. It really is the heart of ENSTA Bretagne.
Richard, president of the Students’ Common Room 2019/2020

The main opening times of the Foy’z
The Foy’z is open at different times of the day (between 8.00 and midnight). The times vary from day to day as the students who manage the Foy’z (the Foy’z Men /Women) have to be free and not have lessons. It is generally open at lunch break (a lot of students go there for tea or coffee after lunch) and at the end of the day, after lessons as well as on Thursday afternoons.
The Foy'z Men/Women
The Foy’z Men/Women manage the place : they ensure the opening, entertainment during the day and evenings, stock management, cleaning, security etc.
The mixed team is made up of about twenty students and co-operative (apprentice) engineers in the 2nd and 3rd years. They sign up for one or two years.
Those who sign up for the Foy’z are motivated to take an active role in students life. They have spent time at the Foy’z and have got to know the former team.
They must apply individually to show their motivation (it is not a professional style application like for an internship, they have to demonstrate creativity). Applications are usually received in March/April after the BDE (student union) elections. When the new team is formed, a training weekend is generally organized for the end of April, enabling the handover.
One evening: one theme
- Every Tuesday and Friday, little challenges are organized. These evenings a especially popular at the beginning of the year as they enable the new students to get to know the older ones.
- Wednesday evenings are the theme evenings: casino evening, Jam Session in partnership with the music club, blind test, billiards tournament, etc. Wednesday evening is also when the "terroir"* evenings take place.
- Thursday evening is reserved for evenings organized by the school’s associations and clubs. For these evenings, the Foy’z is emptied of its furniture to be able to hold as many people as possible and allow everyone to dance. Each of these evenings has a particular theme and students are invited to come disguised: work site evening, sea and sealife, Wall Street, Halloween, Christmas, Chavs and tuning…
One evening can count up to 250 people (for the biggest induction evenings).
* During the « terroir » evenings (organized by the BDE head of "terroir"), they serve typical meals: hot dogs, Breton evening with crepes and galettes (Breton pancakes), Texan evening with chili con carne, regional evening where students present the typical food of their region…
HydroChallenge

#Technical challenge #Autonomy #Multidisciplinarity
Chinese Portrait
If the association were…
- Key words: AUTONOMOUS SAILBOAT
- A book: La longue route by Bernard Moitessier
- An animal: the dolphin
- A famous person: the love-child of Tabarly and Elon Musk
The sailing robot: architectural choices
After undertaking joint brainstorming and research in small groups, the team made the following choices:
- a very narrow stem, dubbed a “wave-piercer”. This maximizes the vessel’s ability to cut through the waves.
- rigging: this will comprise a rigid sail, which is easy to steer thanks to a rear panel.
- tilted keel, to stop the boat from getting stuck amidst seaweed.
The skills to be combined are wide-ranging and include naval architecture, automation as well as embedded intelligence.
