Irene, a Spanish student from the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV), chose Telecom Paris for the enriching experience of a double degree abroad, to study certain subjects in greater depth and complete a 6-month paid internship. Irene benefited from an Erasmus+ grant and a UPV scholarship to finance her engineering studies at Telecom Paris.

In this testimonial, Irene explains how she prepared for the Embedded Systems and Mobile networks and Internet of Things courses, which are taught in French, a language she knew very little about at the time: intensive personal preparation and a language course organized by Telecom Paris. For the record, some courses in the Telecom Paris engineering program are taught in English.

In the 2nd year of her double degree, which corresponds to the 3rd year of the engineering cycle, she specialized in embedded systems. Irene chose to follow the Master 2 in Embedded Systems and Information Processing at the Institut Polytechnique de Paris, which is run by Telecom Paris. It is also possible to follow the Embedded Systems course as an internal option.

Irene was delighted to find that the many projects carried out at both Telecom Paris and UPV were very much appreciated by the companies she approached in her search for the 6-month internship that closes the engineering degree.

She is delighted to have chosen the adventure of a double degree at Telecom Paris!
