How to gain advantage?
Academic exchange
You gain academic advantage through spending at least one semes-
ter at one of the UNITECH partner universities, living and studying in
a foreign-language area, where you will extend your studies in en-
gineering and be able to take additional management courses. The
Local Coordinator at your home university is the main contact and can
Internship
Your second area of advantage is the internship with a UNITECH ­­­Cor-
porate Partner company, and this is where you as a student can get
a really good look at a specific company in which you may have an
employment interest. Your exceptional qualities as a UNITECH ­student
Joint Modules
Each module is run and supported by an experienced coaching team
drawn from our Corporate Partner network. During the UNITECH year,
you will attend the unique and specially designed UNITECH Joint
Modules:
The Start-Up Week is an intense growth period for you as UNITECH
stu- dents as you come together for the first time – for a week of
self-dis- covery and business-skill building through exercises and dis-
cussion. You enjoy close contact with Corporate Partners, who bring
value to this week through formal events, such as presentations on
key themes and informal opportunities for in-depth discussion of cut-
ting-edge topics. These interactions put Corporate Partners face to
face with you – the talent of the future at a very influential stage of
your development.
support you in the administrative procedures such as enrolment and
study plan submission.
If you have any questions concerning the alignment of studies abroad
with your home curriculum, the Programme Director at your home
university is there to help you.
are seen as a valuable short-term addition to a Corporate Partner’s
talent resources. The internship placement, from the view of the stu-
dent, is also in a foreign-language country in order to extend your
abilities to perform internationally.
The Mid-Term Week focuses on a set of case assignments provided by
the Corporate Partners. Real issues are given to the student groups,
with the Corporate Partners expecting, and receiving, real results that
are, in many cases, put into effect directly in the Corporate Partner’s
operations or strategy.
The End-of Year event is at the end of the UNITECH year. You re-group
after your time of exchange at another university and your intern-
ships with a Corporate Partners. As you prepare to complete your
academic studies, there are again formal and informal interactions
with the coaches and some Corporate Partners woven into the final
module, including interviews where Corporate Partners can begin the
formal process that leads to employment.

INSA Lyon
INSA Lyon is one of France’s largest engineering graduate schools and
among the top 10 universities of Science and Technology in Europe.
INSA Lyon operates a fully integrated Education, Research and Inno-
vation approach. Since its creation in 1957, INSA Lyon included both
international and human and social aspects in the curriculum of
its engineers. In fact, equal importance is given to its international
relations and openness as to the quality of its education and research.
The international arena has been an essential area for development
notably through numerous educational and research partnerships:
200 partner universities, 28% foreign students on the campus, man-
datory period abroad for all our students and 10 foreign languages
taught at INSA Lyon.
INSA Lyon is a leader in science education, as well as a pioneer in
terms of its policies concerning accessibility and diversity. INSA Lyon
stands out from the crowd. For example, it is one of the few engineer-
ing schools that houses a High Level Sports Section (SSHN) recognised
by the Ministry for Sport.
Other Specific unique sections are available on campus such as: Plas-
tic Arts Studies, Dance Studies, Music Studies and Theatre Studies.
It graduates over 800 engineers each year in 9 fields of specialization.

Top quality training in engineering (5-year program after Bac/A-levels) in 9 specializations
