A comprehensive program that combines work experience and in-class training.
A comprehensive core curriculum
People and project management, business management techniques, languages (including English), as well as mathematics, IT: the core courses are the training program’s fundamental building blocks.
4 Majors
Students in the co-operative engineering program can choose between 4 majors (Embedded Systems, Vehicle Architecture, Naval and Offshore Architecture, Engineering and Business Science). With this track students can acquire both technical and managerial skills.
Work Placements
Students must complete topic-based (quality, international environment, etc.) work placements for which they are assessed and receive individual mentoring. A co-op handbook must be filled out following each work placement. This handbook lists the skills students are expected to acquire.
Individual continuous mentoring
Co-op students are continuously mentored both during work placements, by an employment supervisor, and on campus, by a faculty advisor.
Studying abroad
Whether for a period of study or an internship, ENSTA Bretagne encourages its students to spread their wings! Pictured here: Mickaël (Class of 2018) during his stay in the UK.
Living on campus
A number of rooms in the on-campus student residence are reserved for co-op students, who are charged only for the periods they stay on site. Other student services include a dining hall, media library, sports facilities, student lounge, etc.
Brest
Every year, students who opt to study in Brittany's second-largest student city can enjoy the BrEST LIFE Experience, an initiative offering students a chance to discover a different side to their host city.
Alice, co-op graduate, class of 2014
ENSTA Bretagne’s teaching staff provide both support and guidance. I was closely mentored by my faculty advisor and employment supervisor as I worked towards an engineering position. The co-op program is definitely an advantage. In addition to my degree, I gained professional experience through the various work placements. There were several headhunters that found these credentials quite attractive.
