PARTNERSHIPS

EPITA has signed agreements with technology institutes abroad to promote cooperation in education and research activities. These partnerships involve exchange of students and faculty, internship placements for students and promotion of joint activities in training, research and consultancy.

Stevens Institute of Technology: a historic relationship

Joint Master’s Degree
EPITA and Stevens Institute of Technology offer a joint Master’s program through which students can concurrently pursue EPITA’s Graduate Engineering Degree and Stevens’ Master of Science in Information Systems (MSIS) in less time than it would take to earn the degrees independently. Equivalencies of certain courses allow students to earn almost half the credits of the MSIS through the EPITA graduate program. The rest of the credits can be obtained in the United States in one year and upon graduation, students are allowed to stay for optional practical training.

This is the very concrete result of the special relationship existing between the two institutes for over 15 years. The MSIS has been ranked 5th by the American press, just behind a similar degree at Stanford. Stevens is a major and prestigious American university situated on the banks of the Hudson River, opposite Manhattan, at Hoboken (New Jersey).
