Applicants must demonstrate full English-language proficiency. The tests that we accept are the International English Language Testing System (IELTS), the Internet-based Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL ibt), and the following Cambridge General English Tests: First (FCE), Advanced (CAE), and Proficiency (CPE). Test scores must be less than two years old at the time of application deadline.
The minimum scores required are:
TOEFL iBT ......................................min. 95 overall score
IELTS (Academic)…………….……min. 7.0 overall score
Cambridge Advanced Exam (CAE) .………………..C1 Level (no expiry)
You must upload a copy of your IELTS, TOEFL, or Cambridge test results in the online application system. Do not send your scores electronically through ETS or the British Council.
You can submit your application without your English language test result. However, please note that any offer will be conditional on your providing your English language test results at the required level.
Important: The English test may be waived only if:
English is your native language (Passport or National Identity Card required) or if you have earned your last degree from an institution in which ALL your instruction was conducted in English. Your last degree certificate must state the official language of the degree program, or it must be mentioned in the transcript of records or its supplement (official attestation from your university).
No level of French is required to be admitted in the Master of Science and Technology Programs.
Although you do not need to speak French in order to complete the graduate degree, we believe that some basic French language skills are necessary to facilitate your everyday life in France.
Therefore, please note that if your mother tongue is not French or if you have never been enrolled in an academic program entirely taught in French (for at least one year), you will be tested by our Language department upon your arrival and depending on the results, you may be requested to enroll in an introductory French Language course and as part of the degree requirements.
Students who have already studied French as a Foreign Language may also attend B1/B2/C1 level classes: a good command of French language will indeed increase your employability in France upon graduation. No additional fees are charged for language courses.
