The students of the Ingénieur Civil des Mines program started their academic year on September 1st on the historic campus at 158, cours Fauriel. A significant moment, marking the beginning of a remarkable human and professional adventure.
The 165 students comprising the ICM 2026 cohort began their induction program by writing a letter to the person they will become in a few years.
Ambitions, projects, motivations, dedications… Once written, the words were sealed. Their future opening will provide an opportunity to see the journey made!
The day continued with uniform fittings and a presentation of the key moments of the new academic year, such as the societal day and WANA.
