Year of establishment: 1997
The Network "n+i" is a consortium of over 50 French Grandes Ecoles d'Ingénieurs.
These engineering institutes have combined their international cooperation operations to offer a better service to foreign students.
With a single application Network "n+i" website http://www.nplusi.com, students can received academic proposal from over 50 engineering institutes of all fields of engineering.
Students can apply to different programmes:
- International Bachelor : a visit from 6 to 12 months in a French Engineering
Institute (under agreement with the foreign university).
- Master : a 2 year training, including 6 months of paid work experience (internship),
which leads to a master’s degree from a French Engineering Institute (diplôme
d’ingénieur or international master).
- Post-master : a 1-year programme of specialization in a specific filed of study for a
better integration into working life.
- Pré-Doc (Phd) : a programme dedicated to future PhD students to indentify and select the
most appropriate laboratory.
- Rendez-vous "n+i", a cocktail of culture, language and engineering: a 14-days
discovery programme of the French technological know-how.
Network "n+i" also offers three "track to success" packages for international students in France:
- A cultural integration package (PIC) : assistance during the whole duration of studies, welcome upon arrival, orientation sessions, tour of Paris, lodging, insurances, opening of the French bank account, transfer to the school
- A linguistic integration package (PIL): 8 weeks of intensive French language courses, lodging with a French host family, cultural activites
- A methodological integration package (PIM): semester of methodological, academic and linguistic adaptation as a part of the engineering training
Network n+i has been involved for several years in India and South Asia.
India is the second nationality of students coming to France with Network "n+i".
Network "n+i" also has a permanent representative in India to help students interested by engineering studies in France.
Network "n+i" as signed many cooperation agreements in India and South Asia, the complete list of universities is available here: http://www.nplusi.com/foreign-universities
