ISGE-BF : The Higher Institute of Electrical Engineering of Burkina Faso

ESIGELEC, in partnership with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Burkina Faso, local corporates (Sonabel, Onatel, Brakina and a few others) and with the support of the Burkinabé and French governments founded the Higher Institute of Electrical Engineering of Burkina Faso (ISGE-BF).
Launched in 2003, ISGE-BF provides education in the field of electrical engineering to future senior technicians. The degree awarded is recognised by CAMES, the African and Malagasy Council for Higher Education.

Since 2005, meritorious students have the option of pursuing their studies ESIGELEC, in France, to obtain the French engineering degree. These students also receive merit grants from the French authorities.

ISGE-BF provides training in electrical systems engineering, network and telecommunication systems engineering and design engineering.

ESIGELEC was one of the main partners of this project, providing its expertise and its commitment to design and implement the engineering programme.

Upon successful completion of this programme, they are eligible for admission to one of the following Grandes Ecoles in France: EIGSI La Rochelle, NEOMA BS, ECAM Lyon or ESIGELEC.

Joint MSc-Master of Science with University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC)

The MSc-Master of Science in Electronic Embedded Systems has been developed in partnership with the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), in Chengdu, China.

This MSc degree is awarded by ESIGELEC, certified by the French Conférence des Grandes Ecoles, and approved by the Chinese Ministry of Education. It aims to train professionals and experts in embedded electronic systems, who will be able to work as developers, researchers, projects managers, maintenance managers or technical advisors.

The MSc-master of science is taught in English and in Chinese, on the campus of UESTC in Chengdu, China. The first batch of students started the programme in March 2021.
