Overview
The École Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Montpellier is a public engineering school and a constituent institution of the University of Montpellier. The school is accredited by the CTI (Commission des Titres d’Ingénieurs) to award the chemical engineering degree for a maximum duration of 5 years.
It is also ISO 9001-certified for its entire curriculum and has earned the prestigious Apple Distinguished School designation for its innovative teaching approach, which relies on a fleet of iPads provided to all its engineering students throughout their studies.
The ENSCM awards a single degree upon completion of its chemical engineering program, which students can pursue either as full-time students or as apprentices.
Director: Pascal Dumy

Training Courses
The ENSCM offers a unique programto train high-levelchemical engineers under both apprentice and student statuses, equipping them not only with in-depth knowledge in all fields of chemistry but also with a solid scientific and general education that enables them to adapt quickly and advance to positions of responsibility.
The program is based on a solid core curriculum and then branches out into eight specializations focused on chemistry and its related fields (biology, chemical engineering, etc.) and geared toward major industrial growth sectors.
