Since 2010, ESPCI Paris has offered need-based scholarships, awarded by a dedicated ESPCI scholarship committee. These Joliot Scholarships are available to all engineering students, both French and international, and may be granted in addition to other scholarships or financial aid the student may receive.
In practical terms, for example, an engineering student who receives a CROUS grant will have their monthly grant doubled thanks to the Joliot Scholarship. These scholarships are also available to students who do not receive CROUS aid.
Applications must be submitted online, and the opening date of the application platform will be announced at the beginning of the academic year.
