ERASMUS+ Exchange program for Incoming students

Come study at ESIEA

The European ERASMUS + program

Hey, potential Erasmus+ students! You probably know France for its culinary traditions (baguette, cheese, wine…), fashion and perfume, art museums and even… opportunities for romance!

But did you know that France is also a country with a longstanding tradition of science and engineering? Did you know that we have astronauts and famous companies in the games industry? Hip mathematicians and world famous pioneers in electronic music? 

Come join us and find out more at ESIEA Graduate School of Engineering!

If you are studying at one of ESIEA’s Erasmus+ partner universities , you can apply as an exchange student under the Erasmus+ program. We will be delighted to welcome you to one of our campuses!

ESIEA Graduate School of Engineering offers a 5-year program in Digital Sciences and Technologies leading to an engineering degree equivalent to a Master of Science.

Our entire program is offered in French on our Laval campus and in both English and in French on our Paris campus. You are certain to find the program and campus that are right for you!

The school promotes the international mobility of its students around the world, especially within the European Community within the framework of Erasmus+.

Academic exchange programme promoting student mobility in Europe
It allows students to complete a semester in a partner university. More than 620,000 French people have benefited from this European programme since its inception in 1987.

Erasmus+ participants receive mobility support. It is calculated on the number of months/days of their stay on the partner campus. This support is funded by the European Commission.
