GRENOBLE, THE CRADLE OF COMPUTER SCIENCE
AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS

Founded in 1960 by mathematician Jean

Kuntzmann, Grenoble INP - Ensimag was the
first school to specialize in computer science
and applied mathematics in France.

The school is based in the Grenoble area, a dynamic

environment filled with both research laboratories and
industries specializing in micro and nano technology,
and science and technology for computer science and
mathematics. In France, it is a pioneering site where public
research reaches its zenith in the fields of mathematics
and computer science (1 Turing prize, 4 members of the
Academy of Science, 9 IUF).

Grenoble INP - Ensimag is a Grande École of Engineering

in the INP Group. Ranked as one of the best generalist
schools for digital technology in France, its renown
stretches far beyond its home borders.

 GRENOBLE INP - ENSIMAG, DUAL SKILLS

Grenoble INP - Ensimag

Acquire dual skills in computer science
and applied mathematics

Grenoble INP - Ensimag is at the heart of the digital revolution. Combining the study of applied mathematics and computer
science, Grenoble INP - Ensimag trains talented engineers capable of contributing to technological developments, and creating
and adapting to new innovations throughout their careers.

The dual skill in applied mathematics and computer science plays a strategic role in fields as varied as energy, communications,
finance, embedded systems, and security. Digital engineering makes it possible to design reliable, efficient tools for company, and
to swiftly respond to market needs. Reactivity and agility made possible thanks to a solid education combining theory and practice,
general education, and customized topical programs. With these dual skills, all of the business sectors will be at your fingertips!

"Businesses in the digital sector are looking to diversify

their teams with a better mix of men and women, to
improve performance"

Female engineering!
Emilie Paillous, Grenoble INP - Ensimag engineer
Back-end developer @Fabernovel Technologies

A good student by nature, I enrolled in a program at a demanding and multi-disciplinary faculty (PCSI) in Paris to give
me as many career options as possible. It was the experience of a university lecturer at Ensimag that showed me that
computer science was about more than just writing code, and that this tool was found everywhere in our lives. That's
what made me want to attend the Grande Ecole. I wasn't scared, but I did wonder if it was sensible. The old clichés
are hard to shake off. People often say computer science is just about video games and for boys... But that's not true!
And you can forget the image of the lone engineer spending all of their day in front of a computer... Today, I am a "lead
developer", and produce apps for the general public while managing a team. Designing tools for people is enriching and
very inclusive. I love it!

"Ensimag gave me a general understanding of math

and computer science which gave me lots of options at
the start of my career."

Anthony Yong, Senior Quantitative Analyst

@Bainbridge Partners LLP

I really believe Ensimag offers a very high-level education. For students who have chosen the "Engineering for Finance"
track, Ensimag offers a triplet of skills in mathematics, computer science and finance which is extremely well-known in
the industry. I think students who complete all of their studies at Ensimag have all the skills they need to succeed in their
careers, whatever their ambitions.

Laura Medji,
co-founder of Tracktor

Ensimag gave me a general understanding of math and computer science which gave me lots of options at the start of
my career. The school's training is very solid and also very practical. The teaching team listens, the courses are well-
constructed and rewarding, and it is one of the most well-reputed schools in the labor market! Also, in the third year of
study, I did an exchange in Brazil, which was an extraordinary experience in many ways.
