ISEN, the engineering school for training in computer science in Marseille
ISENISEN Méditerranée is an engineering school that trains young people in the field of computer science from high school to master's level and supports them throughout their student life.
In 2018, ISEN opened its campus in Marseille dedicated to computer engineering. Since the start of the 2021 academic year, the campus has also been offering a bachelor's degree in computer science, video games, and virtual reality. These degree programs combine science, technology, and engineering and are aimed at young people who wish to pursue a career in computer science.
ISEN is a higher education institution that trains engineers and experts in the digital sector in Marseille, but the training does not stop at technical or scientific subjects. Students learn to communicate, to manage, to gain perspective on their activities and, above all, as no one knows the technologies of tomorrow, they learn to learn.
ISEN promises each student, from the baccalaureate to the master level, each talent, each future professional to be accompanied throughout his training course, a course which corresponds as much to his desires as to the needs of companies and society.
ISEN is a grande école certified by the CTIthe "commission des titres d'ingénieurs", and is one of the 204 best engineering schools, authorized to deliver an engineering degree. The CTI is an independent organization, in charge since 1934 of evaluating all French engineering schools. ISEN is also qualified as an EESPIG (Etablissement d'Enseignement Supérieur Privé reconnu d'Intérêt Général), as are the major associative engineering schools in contract with the State.
New campus in Marseille - opening in 2026
Starting in the 2026 academic year, the ISEN campus in Marseille will evolve to welcome its students to a new, more spacious site, still in Marseille, located at 7 rue Gaspard Monge (13013).
This future campus, located in a more student-oriented environment, will enable Marseille to offer all of the courses already taught in Toulon, thus providing an even more comprehensive academic experience.
This project is part of ISEN Méditerranée's commitment to improving the quality of its facilities, student life, and educational opportunities offered to its students.
Engineering and bachelor courses in Marseille
Computer engineering , a growth sector
ISEN works in partnership with companies. More than 100 partner companies offer internships and work-study programs to our students every year. Some of them are even more involved in the life of the school by sponsoring one of our classes or by collaborating in research projects, or by proposing conferences on the professions.
Leading IT companies such as IBM, Naval Group in defense, and Enedis in energy are just a few examples of the many recent and active partnerships developed with our school.
To help students meet their recruiters, the Forum École-Entreprises is the event organized at ISEN to bring companies and students together. between companies and students. Twice a year, this forum is open to ISEN students and recent graduates looking for a job, work-study or internship. Around thirty companies are present, and hundreds of recruitment interviews are held for local, national and international jobs.
The result of this dynamic is that 98% of the young ISEN graduates are employed less than 5 months after graduation. ISEN graduates are recognized and in demand in all sectors of activity for their wide-ranging skills in the field of computer science but also for their interpersonal skills.
