Study together

Many ENSTA students will spend part of their studies at both ENSTA campuses: Paris-Saclay and Brest. Some courses, particularly those in the first year of the general engineering program, are offered at both sites thanks to state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment. Some students will spend one semester in Brest and the next in Paris-Saclay, and vice versa. This organization of studies across two campuses helps to create a sense of belonging and a shared class spirit.

Making the most of your years of study

Studying at a school with two campuses offers the opportunity to discover different working environments and lifestyles.

With the same academic standards expected at Paris-Saclay and Brest and comparable facilities, each campus is distinguished by its unique and stimulating geographical location: the Saclay plateau on one side, Brest and its harbor on the other.

Throughout the year, events and highlights are organized to allow students to get to know each other and share moments together. This is the case, for example, at the beginning of the year, with the orientation weekend, but also with the inter-ENSTA weekends.
