Computer Science Engineering (Bac+5, Master’s level)

The Ingénieur Spécialité Informatique is a three-year, full-time engineering program offered by CentraleSupélec at its Metz campus in France. Delivered in French, the program leads to a nationally recognized engineering diploma at Bac+5 (Master’s-equivalent) level. It provides advanced education in computer science, programming, algorithms, computer networks, operating systems, artificial intelligence, data science, software engineering, and information systems.

Curriculum and Practical Training

The six-semester curriculum develops technical expertise in C/C++ and Python programming, computer architecture, relational databases, machine learning, deep learning, optimization, high-performance computing, autonomous robotics, cybersecurity, and big data technologies. Students also explore quantum computing concepts, software security, natural language processing, and application development. The program combines academic study with research projects, industrial collaboration, and professional development. It includes 39 weeks of internships and a minimum of 18 weeks of international experience. During the third year, students may choose a professionalization contract combining academic education with employment.

Admission Requirements and Tuition Fees

Admission is available through competitive examinations for applicants who have completed at least two years of scientific preparatory studies, university-level recruitment for eligible third-year science or engineering students, and international double-degree agreements. The program is taught in French, but the official page does not specify a mandatory French-language test or minimum CEFR level.

For the 2027–2028 academic year, the published annual tuition table lists €2,500–€5,000 for eligible EU students and €6,330 for non-EU students. Reduced fees and exemptions may apply according to eligibility. However, the explanatory text on the same university page quotes €6,180 for non-EU students, creating a discrepancy that requires confirmation. The qualification is a French national engineering diploma accredited by the Commission des Titres d’Ingénieur (CTI).
