upGrad Abroad and ESIGELEC, France launches Bridge Program for Master’s Degree in Engineering

Three-and-a-half-month online module covers topics such as Engineering Mathematics, Engineering Physics, Electrical Engineering

upGrad Abroad, a ‘Study Abroad’ vertical of upGrad announced a partnership with ESIGELEC, France to offer a Bridge Program for Masters in Engineering. The partnership will provide learners from B.Sc and BCA backgrounds with a regular science degree to pursue a Master’s degree in Engineering in France and expand their career opportunities.

The three-and-a-half-month online module, designed by ESIGELEC and powered by upGrad, covers topics such as Engineering Mathematics, Engineering Physics, Electrical Engineering, Signal and Systems, Control Systems, Biographical Studies, and Communication Skills taught by renowned international faculty. Through this partnership learners can also avail post-study work visa support and career support, after course completion.

As organisations are embracing high-end technology, the demand for tech talent across the world is rising exponentially and the program will help them be future-ready. For those willing to pursue masters in Software Engineering and Digital Transformation one should be a BCA or B.Sc (IT/Computer Science) Graduate with 60% marks, and those willing to obtain Masters in Electronics and Embedded Systems, one must be a B.Sc (Electronics) Graduate with 60% marks. Additionally, a minimum of 50% marks in all subjects of the bridge program is mandatory to transfer to ESIGELEC, France.

Ankur Dhawan, President, upGrad Abroad, commented: “This partnership will further strengthen our program and university portfolio and provide our learners with global opportunities across the field of Technology. The bridge program will not only aim to upskill learners in various Technology disciplines but also aid them through with working visa and career support, on completion to ensure that our learners can pursue a career in France.”

Cyril Marteaux, Director, Academic Affairs & International Relations, ESIGELEC added: “Our program will give science graduates openings that hitherto, were reserved for engineering graduates only.

Through ESIGELEC’s state-of-the-art lab facilities, students will discover France’s excellence in technology and our international teaching faculty will expose them to different pedagogical approaches, making them ready to face the demands of multi-cultural work environments.

We look forward to meeting the first cohort of the Graduate Bridge Program in March, this year. An exhilarating experience in the cultural capital of the world awaits them, not to mention all that Europe had to offer.”
