CentraleSupélec's second year is open to exchange students, either during the Fall semester "S7" (September to late January) or the Spring semester "S8" (February to June), or both.
Detailed syllabuses can be found in the 2024/25 course catalog. Please note that minor changes can still occur before your arrival.
The usual course load of the Engineering Program is 30 ECTS per semester.
At CentraleSupélec, we require exchange students to select a minimum of ECTS:
- Students applying for a full-year exchange (S7+S8): minimum 20 ECTS per semester.
- Students applying for 1 semester (S7 or S8): minimum 15 ECTS per semester.
Please make sure to select enough courses to meet the requirements of your home university, but not below the minimum required by CS.
While filling this form, please keep track and write down the courses you are choosing, as there will be no recap at the end.
If you have any question, please send an email to Julie Castel.
