Polytech Dijon

What Polytech Dijon does

Polytech Dijon is a public engineering school (École Polytechnique Universitaire de Bourgogne) operating under Université Bourgogne Europe in Dijon, France, formed in 2024 to replace the legacy ESIREM institution. It delivers CTI-accredited engineering degrees across four specializations: Materials Engineering (including non-destructive testing), Computer Science & Networks (with cybersecurity and AI tracks), Electronics & Digital Systems (with IoT), and Robotics/Cobotics (delivered from the Le Creusot campus). The school recruits approximately 300 new students per year through national competitive exams (Concours Polytech, CCINP, Geipi Polytech), apprenticeship pipelines (in partnership with UIMM Bourgogne 21-71 across four specialization tracks launched in 2023), and international channels spanning 70+ partners and a delegated Master-level campus in Yaoundé, Cameroon (established 2018).

The underlying technology base includes the ImVia research laboratory (computer vision, real-time AI image analysis, medical imaging, multimodal imaging systems, robotics perception), a FabLab, and a comprehensive scientific equipment platform for thermal analysis (ATG/ATD, DSC, dilatometry), microscopy (optical, SEM with EDX), chemical analysis (X-ray fluorescence, IRFT, UV-visible spectrometry, gas chromatography), mechanical testing, rheology, and acoustic measurements. The school holds ISO 9001:2015 (since March 2015), CTI accreditation, RNCP certifications, and a 2025 Services Publics+ reception-quality certification.

The business model is that of a French public university: revenue combines state budget allocations, regulated tuition fees differentiated for EU/EEA/Switzerland/Andorra/Monaco/Quebec students versus international students, corporate apprenticeship contributions routed through UIMM, continuing education fees, and contract scientific services (Polytech Dijon Prestations) offering materials characterization, expertise, and equipment access to industry clients. The school serves two customer segments: prospective engineering students (primary persona) seeking CTI-accredited credentials with industry and international exposure, and industrial companies (secondary) seeking talent recruitment, R&D collaboration, apprenticeship hosting, and continuing education. Reported graduate outcomes are strong, with 88% employment at graduation for 2022 promotions and full employment described for the Cuivre and Quantum cohorts.
