3/ My application is reviewed

Applications are reviewed by a panel of ENSTA faculty members. The best applications are selected.

4/ I present my project during the selection interview

Selection interviews will take place from March 31 to April 2, 2026. During this interview, you will be asked to present your project and your background to a representative of the industry and a member of the ENSTA teaching staff.

In mid-April, the final jury, composed of representatives from ENSTA, companies, and training partners (ITII, CFAI, AFPI), draws up a list of eligible candidates.
