Our brand name

It is working to develop joint educational, research, and innovation projects in the fields of science, technology and management. 

The complementary nature of the areas of excellence of the ParisTech Grandes Écoles provides students, researchers, and all partners with an outstanding pool which allows for a unique transdisciplinarity.  

The ParisTech activities are based on three main areas:

• the promotion of education based on the French Grande École model in France and abroad

• multi-disciplinarity in education and research for the benefit of business

• increasing commitment to promote diversity 

• solidarity: class sizes are kept intentionally small to allow students to interact closely together and with teaching staff, both during and after their studies.

ParisTech has gained strong public recognition over the years, due to its close ties with major foreign universities and its many partnerships with international companies.  The Grandes Écoles can benefit from international recognition through the ParisTech brand name.
