2 The adds to the uniqueness of the ECE curriculum since our school is one of the only graduate schools of engineering to offer full academic training in this field. The embedded systems domain is currently experiencing tremendous growth in the automobile, aeronautics, space, rail, mobile communications, and electronic payment solutions industries. The main technological driver behind today s research and development is the need for mobility. Today, companies value operational embedded systems engineers, and yet such graduates are hard to find on the market. For more information Christophe Baujault Head of the Embedded Systems Department More than ten years in Embedded Systems Engineering [email protected] Marivi Marivi Garcia Garcia Botsmakian Botsmakian International Officer officer in charge of Study Abroad programs [email protected] Our students conduct their internships with leading companies working as embedded software engineers, real-time software engineers, embedded applications engineers, or industrial process automation engineers working for DASSAULT AVIATION, SNECMA, SCHLUMBERGER, VALEO, etc. Program Benefits : Educating and training engineers who can design, develop and use : * Embedded software * Real-time applications * Onboard computer and electronic systems Building expertise in the following technological fields : * Electronics * Computer science * Networks Reaching the following target industries : * Automobile sector * Air and space sector * Rail sector * Telecommunications industry * Electronic payment solutions sector * Smart cards industry Train engineers for engineering service providers in: * Industrial computing * Technical and scientific computing Training engineers for IT consultancies in : * High technologies * Emerging technologies Preparing our graduates for the following positions : * Embedded software engineer * Real-time applications engineer * Embedded applications engineer * Industrial computing engineer * Electronic payment systems engineer

3 About the French Master s Degree in Engineering The French Master s Degree in Engineering is officially entitled Diplôme d Ingénieur. In some countries, people are generally worrying about the Diplôme word, which often refers to institutions and programs at a lower level. In France however, this is quite the opposite: the French State only allows the final year degrees it recognizes as such to be granted the Diplôme title. The French Master s Degree in Engineering is indeed delivered by institutions accredited by the CTI (Commission of the French Ministry of Education) this is the highest level of recognition by the French State for Schools of Engineering. Like ECE, these institutions are most of the time members of the French Conference des Grandes Ecoles (the top Grandes Ecoles are comparable to the Indian Institutes of Technology IIT s). For many reasons, the French Master s Degree in Engineering is considered by companies as the most efficient degree for embracing all of their industrial activities, even in research and development. First of all, it is attracting the best students studying science after Baccalaureate (fresh out of high school). Secondly, the programs leading to the French Master s Degree in Engineering are always matching scientific, technological and managerial skills in such a way that the future engineers will prove rapidly their professional efficiency and their ability to manage complex projects. The comparison between the French Master s Degree in Engineering and the different Masters in or Masters of delivered in various universities highlights undoubtedly the significant advantage of FMDE owners on the job market. Their fast-moving progression within companies, be it in technical or in managerial positions, highlights the perfect adaptation of their training program to the expectations of various organizations (whether producing goods or services). This explains why the French companies operating overseas and interested in hiring Engineers are particularly attracted to applicants with a French Touch. Students acquire the latter when they study for the French Master s Degree in Engineering. As a Master s Degree, the French Master s Degree in Engineering is recognized all over the European Union and benefits from the reputation of France s technological savoir faire throughout the world.

8 ECE Fees Structure Our International student program offers help and assistance to study in Paris The ECE Fees include : I - ECE Tuition fees - Regular tuition fees (2-year Master s program) - Additional tuition fees for compulsory intensive training in French language -Training and support for Internship placement - 2 years social insurance and private healthcare insurance II - Services provided by EGIDE on behalf of ECE 1 - Help with visas 2 - Welcome and airport pick up in Paris by a driver who will drop students to their accommodation 3 - Finding a quality accommodation for students in Paris, without any additional fees (no commission and no guaranty demanded). The average monthly cost for the rent is EUR 600, depending on the type of accommodation chosen. Bear in mind that students are free to decline this service before July 1st if,and only if, they can prove they have already arranged for accommodation and provide a lodging certificate (in that case, a fees reduction of EUR 500 will be granted). Students and their families should be informed that it is extremely difficult to find accommodation in Paris, it is simply impossible to rent a place without paying a commission and a 2-month guarantee deposit. The service included avoids any kind of difficulties and additional expenses (hotel, etc.) in case of a difficult if not unfortunate search at the last moment. 4 - Help in opening a bank account in Paris 5 - Help in obtaining a residence card in France 6 - Provision of a social insurance for the students first three months in France, until the national student social insurance runs 7 - Subscription to the cultural integration program proposed by EGIDE. Students only pay a reduced fare to participate to one or more activities (visits, meetings, cultural events, etc.) The ECE Fees do not include: - Management of the different scholarships obtained by students. EGIDE takes care of collecting the amounts obtained from public and private organizations and transfers them to the students on a fixed periodicity. A financial commission of EUR 200 will be charged, but only once, by EGIDE for this additional service. - EGIDE is also able to provide travel tickets at low prices. There is an additional EUR 60 EGIDE commission for this additional service. The estimated monthly amount of living expenses (rent + food) is EUR 900, to be added to the ECE Fees in forecasting the total budget.
