ESIGELEC opens a new 2-year foundation course in Sri Lanka

Benefitting from its experience and a wish to pursue its international development, ESIGELEC is opening a new 2-year foundation course in Colombo, Sri Lanka in October 2016. This Preparatory Degree Course, given at the American International Campus (AIC), aims to prepare Sri-Lankan secondary school students with A-Levels to begin the 3-year "Grande Ecole" Engineering Course at ESIGELEC at the end of their studies in Colombo.

The preparatory course programme is based on the Integrated International Preparatory Course at ESIGELEC in Rouen. The course in Colombo will be given in English, but intensive lessons in French throughout the course in Sri Lanka will enable students to acquire the level needed to follow the Integrated International Preparatory Course at ESIGELEC in France in good conditions. ESIGELEC will be in charge of the programmes, assessment, selection and admission of students to this Preparatory Course, and will work in close cooperation with the teaching and administrative teams of the AIC to make a success of this new and unique course in Sri Lanka.

With its Integrated International Preparatory Course in Rouen, the creation of three joint Preparatory Courses in Senegal (2004), Cameroon (2006), and Benin (2008), then the launch of two Joint Adaptation Courses in Shanghai (2012) and Hangzhou (2016) in China, this new preparatory course in Sri Lanka underlines once again the post-baccalaureate orientation of ESIGELEC, both nationally and internationally.

We wish great success to the eight students in this first class year in Colombo!
