Accessible after a BAC+2 in science and technology, the ENSEA Engineering cycle for returning to studies allows employees or job seekers to acquire solid skills in electronic engineering and industrial computing while continuing their professional activity. The pace may include face-to-face course sessions and personal work in a company.
Training expert field electronic engineers
The ENSEA Engineer training course in resuming studies trains engineers who are experts in their technical fields:
- Analog and digital electronics
- Industrial and embedded computing
- Networks and cybersecurity
- Telecommunications and IoT
- Audiovisual and multimedia
The academic excellence of a leading engineering school
The course combines scientific teaching from the common modules of the ENSEA general engineering cycle, and specialist courses in electronics and industrial computing.
The program is equivalent to 60 ECTS credits per year.
The training offers two courses in the 3rd year: Integrated Digital Systems and Networks and Telecommunications.
Technical expertise recognized by manufacturers
At the end of the course, apprentices acquire the ENSEA Engineer title specializing in electronics and industrial computing, a level 7 diploma (BAC +5), multi-certified and recognized by the industry.
Why choose the Engineering course?
- An engineering diploma recognized by the Commission des Titres d’Ingénieur (CTI)
- Cutting-edge teaching in electronics, embedded systems and innovative technologies
- Dedicated support to optimize your skills development
- Training financing: support is possible from the employer, the CPF, France Travail or self-financing.
- ENSEA campus in Cergy-Pontoise, near Paris
From BAC+2 level in science and technology (DUT, BTS, scientific degree)
Dates for the 2026 graduating class to be announced
Be an employee in a company and perform functions in the field of electronics, embedded systems, telecommunications or information technology or be a job seeker and have performed functions in the aforementioned fields.
High-level scientific, technical and general training
ENSEA Engineer training through professional training is organized according to 4 main themes:
- Engineering Sciences: Electronics, Mathematics, Physics, Internet of Things (IoT), Research and Innovation...
- Computer science, networks and telecommunications: Computer networks, Object design and programming, Signal processing, Data management, Cybersecurity...
- Social and management sciences: Team management, Project management, Law, Entrepreneurship, Professional communication, Modern languages (technical English)...
- Field experience: Corporate learning, Final year project, Summer program, International stays
A 1st year Engineer: reappropriation of studies and consolidation of knowledge
300 hours of refresher courses on technical and theoretical knowledge to reach the level of first-year engineering students:
- Scientific and technical training (homogenization): mathematics, computer science, electronics
- Written and oral communication in French and technical English
- Scientific presentations and project presentations
2nd year Engineer: customization of the course according to the professional project
500 hours of joint courses with students in the work-study engineering program:
- Basic science courses: mathematics, electronics, computer science
- Teaching project management, business management, quality and industrial standards
- Technical English and international communication courses
3rd year Engineer: choice of specialization and industrial project
500 hours of joint courses with students in the work-study engineering program
+ 600 hours of individual industrial project
In the first semester, the lessons are part of a common core:
In the second semester, 17 weeks are devoted to developing one of the following two options:
The main objective is to master the design methodology of digital systems. These increasingly rely on complex integrated structures and a significant part of the design is linked to the realization and use of these structures (ASIC, LCA, RISC microcontrollers). The complexity of these systems requires that testing be taken into account from the early phases of the project.
Although this option does not require in-depth knowledge of mathematics, it does require a very good ability to synthesize to be able to understand a project in its entirety and to evaluate the influence of the various design choices of the sub-functions on the entire system.
This option is located at the border of the fields of microelectronics (analog behavior of devices), microcomputing, digital technology, and IT (CAD and real-time systems); it therefore covers a very broad technological field.
The courses in the Networks and Telecommunications option should enable students to acquire mastery of the concepts and tools used in the design, implementation and operation of communications systems on the one hand and networks on the other.
The Networks section covers the analysis of the main types of protocols, the different LAN/WAN profiles, technological solutions, current operator offerings, as well as an approach to methods and tools for evaluating network performance or administering its operation. It should enable the design of network architectures and their sizing to be controlled.
The Telecommunications section covers methods of coding and transporting information from conventional systems to new generation systems. The knowledge acquired should enable the analysis of the operation of a specific system, the evaluation of its performance and the implementation of the corresponding measurement methods.
Students in the Audiovisual Systems program will also deal with applications specific to audiovisual transmissions and broadcasts (DVB, etc.).
