Diverse International Recruitment
Across our two campuses, 141 new students are expected this summer, representing more than 23 different nationalities (Brazil, Tunisia, Algeria, Argentina, the United States, Belgium, Cameroon, China, Colombia, Spain, Guinea, Italy, Ivory Coast, Lebanon, Morocco, Mauritania, Peru, Portugal, Venezuela, Singapore, Sweden, Turkey, and Ukraine).
Of these international students, 122 are enrolled in degree programs (2- to 3-year programs at ENSTA), with more than 80% participating in a dual-degree program—a testament to the strength of the network of academic partnerships developed by ENSTA around the world.
Our international outreach is also supported by our overseas campuses. Once again this year, students from ENIT (Tunisia) and SPEIT-SJTU (China) are joining the School in their first and second years.
In addition, our campuses will welcome 19 international visiting students during the 2026 academic year, in their second and third years of the general program.
These international students bring diverse academic, cultural, and methodological perspectives from their home universities, fostering intercultural exchange within ENSTA’s student body. Their mobility also contributes to the development and vitality of ENSTA’s international partnerships. It allows the entire student community to benefit from a learning environment open to the world, with their mobility supported by Erasmus+ in particular.
This cultural diversity helps enrich exchanges within the school and fully contributes to the international outlook that characterizes ENSTA.
Un accompagnement personnalisé dès l’admission : une priorité pour l'ENSTA
L’ENSTA possède le Label "Bienvenue en France" au plus haut niveau (3 étoiles) décerné par Campus France.
Une attention particulière est accordée aux étudiants internationaux dès l'admission et se poursuit à l'arrivée à l'école afin de tenir compte de leurs besoins spécifiques.
Pour les étudiants non francophones, un stage intensif de français est mis en place dès le mois de juillet afin de faciliter l'intégration et l'aisance en français général et scientifique. Un accueil en gare ou à l’aéroport, complété par un kit de bienvenue contenant une panoplie d’objets utiles pour les premiers jours leur sont également réservés.
Au-delà de cet accueil, l'équipe de la Direction des Relations Internationales accompagne les étudiants dans l'ensemble de leurs démarches une fois sur place, en collaboration avec les différents services de l'Ecole : préparation de l'arrivée dans le logement, aide aux formalités administratives (banque, santé, CAF, validation du visa en titre de séjour), visites médicales sur site, installation en France et découverte de leur nouvel environnement sur le plan académique, professionnel, social et local.
Integration at the Heart of the Student Experience
To foster their success and personal growth, international students are invited to participate in numerous integration activities starting in the summer and throughout the year: orientation sessions, campus tours, club activities, and meet-and-greets with French students. These special moments help build connections quickly and make cultural diversity a true asset for the entire ENSTA community. The Student Union (BDE) offers a rich and varied program of activities starting when international students arrive in the summer.
This focus on welcoming and supporting students reflects the School’s commitment to providing a high-quality international student experience.
