Programme
The ESEO Engineering Cycle programme begins with a solid 3-semester core curriculum covering a wide range of IT and electronics skills, as well as human and social sciences.
ESEO places a great deal of importance on 'soft skills' and values such as professional ethics, commitment, autonomy and communication. Particularly sought after in companies, they enable ESEO engineers to stand out in their professional and personal lives.
80% of training in project mode
With 80% of its training in “project mode”, ESEO offers an innovative teaching method based on school projects chosen by the students and carried out in small teams. Project mode develops autonomy, initiative and teamwork. A 4 to 5 month technical internship marks the end of the core curriculum by putting the skills acquired into practice.
A wide choice of routes
The last 3 semesters of the engineering cycle offer a highly personalised career path, with 15 options and around 30 modules to choose from. These provide students with a focus on a particular field, business sector or profession that they would like to consider.
ESEO engineering students can take the Entrepreneurship and Research courses at the same time.
Teaching Humanities
ESEO engineering students have dual skills in IT and electronics, and complement their technical training with teaching in the Human Sciences:
- Business management seminars covering management, economic intelligence, crisis management, economics, accounting and finance, law and marketing
- Challenges and competitions, student entrepreneurship
- Human sciences, professional ethics
- Sustainable Development and Corporate Social Responsibility (DDRSE)
Professional training, 100% employability for 5 years!
Recognised by the CTI
ESEO is a leading engineering school recognised by the CTI(Commission des titres d’ingénieurs) for its expertise in new technologies (digital and electronics).
I chose ESEO because I wasn't sure which engineering sector I wanted to go into. Being atESEO allowed me to discover several interesting fields and to find my way. Thanks to the wide choice of options, I was able to choose a field with more relevance than if I had done it 3years earlier. ESEO also gave me the opportunity to develop and acquire know-how and interpersonal skills that go well beyond technical skills, thanks in part to the school's strong community life.

Target professions
Internship
At ESEO, internships are strategically integrated into the engineering cycle to provide students with practical and enriching experience.
Second year
A technical work placement gives students the opportunity to develop their technical skills and discover various professional environments over a period of 4 to 5 weeks.
Third year
Students specialise in their field of interest and prepare for their professional integration with a one-semester work placement at the end of their studies.
Objectives
Students benefit from personalised support throughout their placements, with educational supervision to maximise their experience and learning. Internships at ESEO aim to :
- Apply theoretical knowledge in a real-life context.
- Develop technical and cross-disciplinary skills.
- Enhance employability and build a professional network.
