Other opportunities (with or without ECTS credits) might be available to acquire an international experience abroad. Please discuss these possibilities with the Department of International Affairs and Partnerships.
The international professional assignment must be carried out in an organisation (company, research laboratory or NGO) and must be linked to the development of engineering skills. An agreement in principle on the part of the employer is required prior to signing the apprenticeship contract.
The minimum duration is nine weeks and apprenticeships are usually scheduled between academic terms four and five.
Engineering students who wish to do so may leave for an entire university year, between the second and third year of study for a junior engineer's assignment. This may be done abroad in the form of a short-term contract, an internship or a humanitarian mission.
Countries : Nicaragua, Benin, Ivory Coast...
Each year a group of students sets out on a venture to support a developing country through bringing concrete assistance, such as :
- providing I.T. materials in different regions
- giving basic I.T. and office software training
- providing construction materials for infrastructure
If you would also be interested in taking up this challenge, contact the “Atlantique Sans Frontières” association.
More than just an experience, it's a true social commitment !
Students are free to make their own way and choose their own humanitarian organisation to spend a summer with, or sometimes longer.
