Curriculum
Engineer training in Environmental Engineering is accessible after 2 years of pre-engineering cycle.
It is structured around 4 main stages:
- Go LaSalle, a first international experience from the 1st semester
- 1 semester of common core specialty
- 3 semesters within the career path of your choice, including a 4-month “assistant engineer” internship
The last semester of the career path can be completed in a partner university, in France or internationally, as part of an exchange semester, a double degree or a diploma stay. - The end-of-study project, which is based on an internship in a company or a research internship for students with student status, or on a long period in a company for students following apprenticeship training.
It gives rise to the writing of the end-of-studies thesis and an oral defense.
