Icam is offering, in January, a staggered start to the academic year for its “International Bachelor” preparatory cycle. This initiative, implemented on the Grand Paris Sud and Nantes campuses, offers a unique opportunity for baccalaureate holders to join a leading engineering program during the course of the year, and therefore after the start of the traditional academic year.
This postponed start date for the “International Bachelor” preparatory cycle, scheduled for January 13, 2025, is aimed at students with an STI2D or STL technological baccalaureate, or a general baccalaureate with at least 1 scientific specialization (math or physics), obtained in 2023 or 2024, whether or not they are currently enrolled in a post-baccalaureate course.
It paves the way for Icam’s general engineering cycles, which are accessible through student status or en apprenticeships.
The originality of this program lies in its inclusive approach: it welcomes students already enrolled in a post-baccalaureate course as well as those looking for a change of direction, “so as not to lose a year“, says Carole Marsella, Deputy Managing Director of Icam, speaking to Studyrama.
With 20 places available (10 per campus), this initiative represents a real second chance for students wishing to embark on an engineering career.
Applications are open until January 6, 2025, directly from Icam on this link.
The students selected will benefit from two weeks of intensive preparation, enabling them to integrate smoothly into the current intake and not lose a year.
This move by Icam demonstrates its commitment to making academic excellence accessible to a wider range of students, while meeting the growing need for qualified engineers on the job market.
