Overview
One of the world’s most pressing challenges is to meet the fast-growing energy demand while at the same time reducing greenhouse gases and pollutant emissions. Today, and for the foreseeable future, 80% of the energy consumed in France comes from fossil fuels (over 85% in developed countries, and almost 100% in developing countries), but the production of renewable and nuclear energy is bound to increase sharply. This situation opens exciting new challenges in developing cleaner and more efficient energy production methods, as well as more effective energy distribution systems.
The general objectives of the Energy - International Track at CentraleSupélec are to:
- provide the scientific background required in the field of energy. In particular in transport phenomena, chemical engineering, materials, reactive media, treatment and conversion of electrical energy;
- give, through the core curriculum, an introduction to great energy challenges;
- give a first experience of numerical methods required to solve complex problems.
Programme Structure
Identify major issues in the energy field.
Understand disciplines related to energy such as thermodynamics, transport phenomena, reactive media, materials, chemical engineering.
Use and develop adapted models, choose the right modeling scale and the simplifying assumptions relevant to energy problems.
Design, detail and corroborate a complex energy system.
Analyze problems related to the energy production, conversion and storage.
Structure ideas within the framework of a project around a research theme.

General requirements
- Besides admission via the same routes as French candidates, foreign candidates may be able to apply through other specific admission routes: the “international student” competitive entrance exam for Maths and Physics, Physics and Chemistry and Physical and Engineering Sciences is the special “international program” competitive entrance exam for Maths and Physics and Physics and Chemistry.
- The “international student” competitive entrance examinations take place in France. They are similar to the CentraleSupélec competitive entrance examinations, except for the language test and the writing test coefficient. This competitive entrance is reserved and open to non-French candidates who have passed the French Baccalaureate (or a foreign diploma recognised as equivalent thereto for the purposes of their university studies) and who have been educated in French Grandes Écoles Preparatory Classes.
