Apply NowAdmission to studies at our school is primarily based on the type of high school diploma (Baccalauréat) and the overall average obtained. Additionally, the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, through a ministerial circular, may set additional conditions if necessary.
For example, for the 2024 Baccalauréat, the admission average was calculated by multiplying the Baccalauréat average by two, adding the mathematics score, and then dividing the total by three. Baccalauréat holders are then ranked based on this weighted average and their Baccalauréat series, within the limits of available academic seats.
Baccalauréat series:
1- Mathematics
2- Sciences
The minimum Baccalauréat average required to apply is 16/20.
Our students are highly involved in scientific, associative, cultural, and sports activities, organized by 12 active clubs and associations within the ESI, under the supervision of teachers, as well as administrative and technical staff.
