University of Technology of Troyes (UTT)

Our mission

UTT's core missions are to conduct research, deliver education & training and facilitate technology transfer. UTT is a French institution of higher education established in 1994. It is today one of the largest engineering schools in France. Over 2,500 students are registered at the University, enrolled on undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral study programs. In the  renowned yearly ranking of the French magazine “L’Etudiant”, UTT takes in 2011 an enviable 6^th position among 65 French engineering schools.

Customized study programs

The standard five-year engineering degree, which is accredited by France's independent engineering degree accreditation body, CTI, can be tailored to each student's individual career objectives as from the first year. UTT offers five engineering degrees, a master's program with the choice of nine specializations, a PhD research program in five specialist areas, as well as work-integrated learning (WIL) modules which combine academic study with paid workplace learning (leading to either a vocational degree, an engineering degree or a master's).

Researching excellence

Research activities at UTT are conducted by eight teams within the Charles Delaunay Institute (ICD). The Institute pursues an interfaculty approach to the central theme underpinning all research efforts: risk management science and technology (RMST), one of the major challenges facing modern society.

Strong ties with industry

UTT develops and maintains proactive relations with industry through joint research programs with businesses and long internships for its students. UTT is a member of theCarnot Institute Network (along with the Compiègne University of Technology) and actively encourages the creation of new businesses.
