Engineer diploma

In France the qualification “graduate engineer” is an indication of a long course (usually 5 years)

Qualification “graduate engineer”provided by a higher education establishment that has been accredited by the authorising body within the French Ministry of Higher Education: the Commission des Titres d’Ingénieur (CTI), which came into being through the law of 10 July 1934.
CTI accreditation is renewed every 6 years and proves that the school’s programmes and education are up to standard required for awarding engineer diplomas.

Semesters and the European Credits Transfer System (ECTS)

The harmonisation programme established by the European Union is also called the “Bologna Process” or the “BMD Reform” [the “LMD réforme” in France].

The objective of this major project is to facilitate the interpretation and comparison of course programmes in different European countries by structuring them in the same way and consequently promoting student mobility.

What are its main features?

  • The “BMD” (Bachelor – Master – Doctor): an architecture for qualifications that are now coordinated around 3 grades
    • Bachelor (B), given for BAC+3
    • Master (M), given for BAC+5
    • Doctorate (D), given for BAC+8
  • Study years are split into semesters.
  • Each course module corresponds to a certain number of ECT credits depending on the student’s workload, practical work, directed personal studies, projects, individual studies and learning objectives.
  • The diploma is accompanied by a diploma supplement (a descriptive annexe).

For some years CPE Lyon has been fully aligned on these European recommendations.

In this framework, CPE Lyon issues an intermediate certificate at the end of year 3, the “CPE Lyon Bachelor”, which is also accompanied by a descriptive annexe
