Experience+ Expérience+: the programme that makes all the difference

Expérience+ is a unique EIGSI programme. The school invites you to enjoy a 360° student experience, where every aspect of your education is an opportunity to grow and fulfil your potential.

Your student experience by EIGSI!

At EIGSI, you are in charge of your own path! You dare, you explore and you create your own opportunities. We invite you to join a caring Living Lab: a place for experimentation where your curiosity is a strength and where you learn to innovate, in an environment that helps you thrive.

EIGSI designed its Expérience+ programme to give you the best possible conditions for your studies. Much more than a concept, it is a philosophy of education and of life: our school believes in the power of the group, of curiosity and of the courage to dare.

Expérience+ comes down to 5 key points:

1/ Choose: a path that suits you

There is no single way, only yours. You benefit from tailor-made support:

  • Caring, personalised follow-up (peer tutoring, mentoring by lecturers, alumni or partners)
  • Active, interactive teaching methods (projects, case studies, flipped classrooms)
  • Soft skills (cooperation, leadership, intercultural agility)
  • Support towards your career plans (coaching, career talks, double degrees)

2/ Learn: your school, a hub open to the future

At EIGSI, you learn through experience, exchange and experimentation:

  • A Living Lab approach: a campus-laboratory where you test and innovate
  • A culture of curiosity, to understand and question your environment and to experiment
  • Hands-on projects to learn by doing
  • Reinvented teaching (experiential in-person learning, collaborative work, team spirit)
  • And a digital platform to extend your learning and keep developing your skills

3/ Start up: your school, a place to dare

At EIGSI, entrepreneurship is a culture, and you are invited to take part in it in very concrete ways:

  • The school created its incubator 25 years ago; it has already supported more than 150 projects, including Elixir Aircraft.
  • You receive individual support (coaching, a dedicated scheme with the Women’s Leadership Chair) and have concrete resources to take action (prototyping spaces, access to materials, technical support).
  • You can also take part in Innovation & Entrepreneurship projects to tackle real business challenges, and count on a network of entrepreneurial alumni to pave the way.

4/ Thrive: campuses to grow, live and breathe

At EIGSI, you experience success in all its dimensions: wellbeing, balance and commitment.

  • You join a close-knit community (easy integration, sponsorship, team-building moments between year groups)
  • You get involved in student associations, recognised as a real learning ground for leadership, with ongoing support (help setting up projects, psychological and academic support if needed)
  • You enjoy a lively yet peaceful campus life: the EIGSI residence (150 rooms), university restaurants 100 metres away, cycle paths and the seafront 400 metres away. We also help you find accommodation if you cannot stay in the residence.
  • Your health is taken care of, with free 24/7 access to the Medaviz platform.

5/ Commit and go further: to fulfil your potential

EIGSI values all your commitments, personal and collective:

  • A flexible study framework if you are a high-level athlete or artist (adapted programmes, dual schedule, dedicated support)
  • Support if you are a committed student (reservist, volunteer firefighter, first-aider, contributor to the common good)
  • And backing for your environmental and social initiatives if you act for a sustainable world
