Bonjour from our Director
Welcome to ESIGELEC, welcome to Rouen!
Our students love many things about the school! For some, it’s the practical approach of our teaching methodology, others thrive in the range of clubs and societies they can join, while for some others it’s the French style of living.
But all of them enjoy being a part of the ESIGELEC family.
If it is engineering education you seek to pursue, we have a range of
programs, across levels that you will find interesting.
Do visit us in person or virtually; we’ll be happy to show you around.
Choosing the right institution and the right program will go a long way in the journey that you are about to embark on and we hope that you will be a part of our community.
Allow me to congratulate you on your decision to further your education and enhance your life.
Best wishes,
Dr. Etienne Craye
Director
Our International Relations
Director says Hello
We thank you for your interest in ESIGELEC!
An international experience in your youth is one you will always cherish,
for many reasons: an exposure to world-class teaching methods, an
immersive experience in a new culture, an opportunity to learn and
speak different languages, and a foray into global career opportunities,
among others. Rouen is a delightful French city – just a two-hour train
ride away from Paris – that will allow you to soak in the authentic
French life!
At ESIGELEC, a third of our students come from outside France and
enrich our community! It is our endeavour to build competencies for
technology graduates that will help them succeed in the
interconnected world we live in.
Coming to academics, we offer a variety of opportunities of study that are internationally recognised: a flagship 5-year French Engineering Program, Masters Programs taught entirely in English and PhD programs in partnership with the University of Rouen.
Our research lab IRSEEM, gives our students a first-hand experience of state-of-the-art facilities and ground-breaking advances in technology.
Our website and our online application portal (ESIGELEC ONESTOP) are designed to help international students with:
International student admissions
Fees and scholarships
Housing information
Immigration/Visa advisement
Online French language training
Airport pickup services
Orientation Week
and much more…
You are welcome here, at ESIGELEC – today and always.

The ESIGELEC Campus
ESIGELEC moved to the Technopole du Madrillet, just an hour away from Paris, in April 2004, at the southern entrance of Rouen. Its campus, spread over 3 hectares and making up an area of 16,000 sq.mts, has received two architectural awards. Well-equipped classrooms for different batch sizes, state-of-the art labs, a well-stocked library, a cafeteria, the greenery surrounding the campus, and various meeting points for students, make your day on campus a productive and fun-filled one.
The campus comprises 5 amphitheatres, of 420, 250, 250, 120 and 100 seats respectively, 14 seminar halls, 10 labs and 5 research rooms, a self-service language multimedia system and a library with more than 6000 books, periodicals and journals. A second building is entirely dedicated to the business services, and a third one comprises the IRSEEM research facility. Top notch testing and measurement facilities are made available to researchers at the Innovation Transfer facility and on the technological platforms in the Embedded Systems Integration Campus (CISE). Students get first-hand experience by way of practical training, using these facilities.
Robust information systems to stay connected!
The campus is Wi-Fi enabled and several student services are digitised: collaborative platforms like Google applications, online courses, the academic calendar and course time-tables are all available at the click of a button. A robust administrative platform handles admissions, attendance, online payments, scores, reports, resit exams, attestations and access for parents to the scores and attendance of the students.
The ESIGELEC Environment
Surround yourself with innovation and inspiration
The practical environment at ESIGELEC is designed to make learning relevant, tangible and hands-on. With state-of-the-art laboratories, dedicated workstations, new tools, digital libraries, non-technical projects and modern teaching models, we want our students to strive towards innovation and develop an entrepreneurial mindset. Every department (technical and non-technical) is equipped to help you apply your knowledge and skills, and experiment with learning differently.

Student Clubs at ESIGELEC
Get the most out of your experience as a grad student
University life is all about finding your passions, finding your tribe and mostly, just finding yourself. Here is where you channelize your interests, usher in distinctive perspectives and enrich your life experiences.
Our student clubs are attuned to help you shape skills that truly make you life- ready – be it leadership, management, teamwork, networking or learning about divergent cultural backgrounds. When you seize the opportunity of being part of a club, you undergo a subconscious transformation that goes beyond your academic pursuits.
You can expect to make new friends, discover your passions, and learn a life lesson or two, all while having a lot of fun and feeling part of a close community.
ESIGELEC and Society
Government authorities in France encourage educational institutions to play an active role in society and we at ESIGELEC are committed to it. Whether it is improving the ratio of female students, providing facilities for individuals with special needs or providing scholarships for certain student audiences, we are doing our best. Sustainable actions are well and truly a part of everything we do at ESIGELEC, and all our actions are four-fold – with commitment, performance, respect and mutual- assistance.
Gender Equality
Disability Inclusion
Student Initiatives
ESIGELEC, a signatory to the gender equality in educational institutions chartered with the education board of Rouen, has at all times, reinforced its commitment to gender equality. Over the last ten years, there has been a significant rise in the number of female students interested in engineering studies in our school and we intend to keep this going. On March the 8th, each year, Women’s Day, a talk on why engineering is a good career option for women is organised jointly by ESIGELEC, INSA-Rouen, CEIS, ESITPA and the education board of Rouen. Similar events are also conducted by ESIGELEC in conjunction with Elles Bougent, an organisation that works towards the same cause.
