"At the end of my engineering cycle at X, I wanted to obtain specific skills in naval architecture that would fit my professional project. Through my previous internships in companies, I had learned that ENSTA Paris was a unanimously recognized reference in this field. Thanks to the ENSTA Paris polytechnic curriculum, I not only acquired the skills I was looking for, but I also really appreciated the fact that I could continue to go deep into all the subjects treated, as we are used to at X. Whether it is in terms of academic excellence, the pace of training, the quality of the speakers or the atmosphere of the School, this passage through ENSTA Paris has really been an excellent experience" Cyprien Jacquemot, (X2015 - ENSTA 2019), naval architect
