International students in the spotlight at both ENSTA campuses

International, Student Life Paris-Saclay & Brest

Having pursued a successful internationalization strategy for years, ENSTA now welcomes students from 32 different countries, with international students accounting for more than 25% of the student body on average across both campuses. To highlight this diversity, our international students recently took part in a photo shoot.

Coming from many different countries and studying at our two campuses, they agreed to be featured in this project to embody the diversity of our academic community, the cultural richness, and the international outlook that characterize the Brest and Paris-Saclay campuses.

This event highlighted the students’ commitment and demonstrates ENSTA’s dedication to promoting an active policy of welcoming and internationalization, in order to ensure a sustained and diverse influx of international students (with a target of 30% international students by 2028) and to provide a rich international experience for all engineering students.

The significant increase in incoming mobility at the School in recent years has been accompanied by the strengthening of the system for welcoming, monitoring, and supporting international students, a group with specific needs. It should be noted that since 2021, the School has held the “Bienvenue en France” Label at the 3-star level, attesting to the quality of the School’s reception and support services, with its strengths lying in its student housing, the quality of its support system, and the dedicated resources.
