Innovation
- Inventions
- Entrepreneurship and business start-ups
ESPCI: generating innovation and jobs ESPCI is also known for its capacity to encourage major innovations. Did you know that as well as radium, polonium, actinium and lutecium, many other objects from our everyday lives were first discovered or created at ESPCI, like the neon tube, the black box, the quartz watch, sonar, wireless technology, self-healing rubber or even ultrafast ultrasound imaging? An entrepreneurial culture More and more graduates create their own companies after graduation or after their PhD. This capacity to innovation is highly valued today. ESPCI courses (...)
Internationalisation
The Department of International Relations is pursuing the intellectual globalisation in postgraduate education and interdisciplinary research, ambitioned since the foundation of our institution, and welcoming the most talented people from around the world. We are focusing on branding of the iconic French elite engineering education and boosting european and international mobilities throughout the world-distinguished institutions.
