International students, complete an academic stay leading to a degree at ENSTA Paris

Several admission routes are open for international students wishing to join the engineering degree courses at ENSTA Paris. You will find all the information in the pages below.

    International exchange students

    Students from international partner universities can attend the engineering courses at ENSTA (Paris-Saclay campus) as exchange students for 1 or 2 semesters. The European credit transfer system (ECTS) allows these students to have their home university recognise the courses received at ENSTA, without however obtaining the school's degree at the end of this period.
