Join INSA
Discover INSA Toulouse’s five-year engineering program, featuring a progressive specialization leading to an engineering degree at Master’s level. You can join the programme in Year 1, 2, 3 or 4, either through the standard curriculum or an apprenticeship program (Years 1 to 3).
You may choose to join an international program in Year 1, for a greater cultural and linguistic immersion than the standard curriculum.
Getting started
year 1: core curriculum
The INSA Toulouse curriculum is adapted to the European higher education LMD system (Bachelor’s–Master’s–PhD)
The INSA curriculum begins with a foundation year designed to give students a core scientific education. Mastering fundamental disciplines, acquiring sound working methods and developing social and communication skills are all key objectives of the curriculum.
