The objective of the Engineer Entrepreneur Programme is to train engineers in entrepreneurial skills, through a real-life project, which forces students to consider, assimilate and assume the risks that are inherent to business.

This is a six-month option, from February to September, during the last year of the engineering cycle. It replaces the End of Studies Project or Internship.

The Engineer Entrepreneur section provides future engineers with an additional skill, developing their capacity to manage a team, drive an innovative project or create a business.

The Engineer Entrepreneur programme allows students to become familiar with the major tools of business and project management, and to control processes and behaviours, through experiential learning.

The Engineer Entrepreneur programme is aimed at:

• engineering students with projects
• student colleagues who wish to get involved in the project by joining the team

The admission sessions are held in May, June and October.

Enrolment Form to be sent to marie.rousseau@insa-lyon.fr

The Engineer Entrepreneur programme awards the specialised “Technology Entrepreneur and Manager” Certificate.

As such, it can also be followed by engineers or scientists from the ‘PRES Lyon’ (Pole for Research and Elite Studies) who have the same level of training, or as additional training, either after graduation as an additional 6th year, or even during professional life.
