The École nationale supérieure d'ingénieurs de Poitiers (ENSI Poitiers) is a French generalist engineering grande école in Poitiers, the regional capital of Poitou-Charentes. Its focus is on the protection of the environment and is part of the University of Poitiers, one of the oldest universities in Europe.

History

Its roots come from Institut de sciences et techniques de Poitiers, a department of the University of Poitiers created in 1972. The Graduate Engineering School took over from it and was established in 1984. Then its buildings have been moved in 1996, in the campus, and it is located with the number B1.

At the beginning, the French grande école was called École supérieure d'ingénieurs de Poitiers (ESIP) and in 2010 it has changed its name.

The presidents of ENSIP were chronologically Michel Blanchard, Marcel Doré, Jean-Hugues Thomassin, Bernard Legube and Jean-Yves Chenebault.

Admission

The admission is decided after concourse at the end of preparatory classes, a highly selective system. It is also possible to be admitted after a Diplôme universitaire de technologie for the best of their promotions.

Diploma

A partnership leads to a Master of Science in turbulence with a scholarship between ENSIP, ENSMA et Centrale Lille. Students can develop a double-competence with IAE Poitiers and their master's in business administration.

Three laboratories support the school:

LIAS: a computer laboratory after the merge of LAII (Laboratoire Automatique et Informatique Industrielle) and on other laboratory.

IC2MP: a chemical laboratory which gathers HYDRASA (HYDRogéologie, Argiles, Sols, Altération), LACCO (LAboratoire Catalyse en Chimie Organique) and LCME (Laboratoire Chimie et Microbiologie de l'Eau) from ENSIP and another one.

Institut Pprime: a physical laboratory which regroups LEA (Laboratoire Etudes Aerodynamiques) and LET (Laboratoire Etudes Thermiques) from the ENSIP added by four more laboratories
