Educational training

INSA Lyon organises the engineering training over 5 years.

• 2 years of general scientific training of excellence (1st cycle) ;
• 3 years of specialisation in one of the 12 fields (2nd cycle).

1st cycle for top-level athletes

• Teaching is organised over 3 years instead of 2.
• The week starts on Monday afternoon and ends on Friday at noon.
• There are no classes on Thursday afternoons (reserved for university sports).
• Classes end as early as possible in the afternoon to leave time for training.
• High level sports students are gathered in an independent group whatever the type of course (lecture, tutorial or practical).
• Arrangements can be made for very special cases (Olympic preparation, specificity of the sports discipline).

2nd cycle for top-level athletes

• There is no longer a specific group.
• The schedule is personalised according to the sports constraints.
• The schedule provides for the 3rd and 4th year to be done over three years instead of two.
• The management of the 5th year is handled according to the evolution of the sports project and the career project.

Academic support

• Postponement and anticipation of exams if necessary and according to the sports constraints.
• Tutoring courses
