CentraleSupélec (reviews)

Very complete training of very good level with incredible opportunities at the exit. Both generalist and specialized training according to the choices of the students. Very high salary at the exit, I recommend.

First and foremost, CentraleSupélec is one of the best Grandes Écoles of France and studying there guarantees calls from any company in France if your profile is not far from what is demanded. Salaries are also higher for students of Grandes Écoles.

The university receives and sends many double degree students, which creates a notably international campus, with students from many nationalities, even if there are still a majority of French students. It also allows original students from the university to choose from a wide range of receiving institutions when considering mobility. In its quest for international relevance, CentraleSupélec is the result of the merger of two renowned universities to increase in size and scientific output.

I study the no longer available programme of one of the previous universities, which was (as is the new programme) quite focused on projects and very close to professional applications, with many of the projects being done with companies and an emphasis on professional experience, with several internship periods throughout the 3-4 years of the programme.

The first two years are largely generalistic in nature and the third year is specific to every itinerary choice.
