Faculty

In order to provide both fundamental scientific and technical education and instruction in cutting-edge techniques and technologies, ENSTA relies on:

  • A permanent faculty. Composed of lecturers and associate professors working in research laboratories at the cutting edge of research in their respective fields;
  • Speakers from companies whose strong involvement in training is one of the riches of the teaching program. It allows students to be in frequent contact with the industrial world. Their operational engineering experience and expertise ensure that the teaching is perfectly in tune with current realities and requirements;
  • Scientists from French or foreign research organizations where the technologies of the future are developed and studied before being transferred to industry.

Teaching and research

Proximity to research is an essential feature of ENSTA's training. Laboratories play a key role in shaping the curriculum.

Whether or not they intend to pursue a career in research, it is essential that ENSTA engineers have direct and meaningful contact with the world of research and development during their studies, and that they understand how it works, its specific characteristics, and its links with other sectors of the economy.
