Entry requirements
Applicants must hold a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent (180 ECTS) in biology, food science, chemistry, physical chemistry or engineering science. Those having completed a Master’s degree or equivalent (240 ECTS) related to biology, chemistry or physical chemistry can apply directly to the 2nd year.
Candidates for whom English is not their mother tongue or who haven’t done their studies in English will have to give a certificate to attest of their English level. The following tests will be accepted as a certification of the required English level :
- CECRL : level B2 minimum
- TOEFL : 87 points minimum
- TOEIC : 785 points minimum
- BULATS : 60 points minimum
- IELTS : 6
- First Certificate English of Cambridge
- Bright Language Test : level 3 minimum
- Duolinguo English Test : 110-125 minimum
Such a document is not necessary for candidates for whom English is their mother tongue, or who have validated a minimum of one semester in English during their Bachelor of Science. However, in both cases, the candidates must absolutely mention it in their application file.
Once the application file is considered as “complete”, several criteria will be taken into account for the selection :
- the university level (grades)
- a strong interest for the sector adds value to your file. This interest can be shown by an experience in this field (internship, project, and experiences) and/or explained in the cover letter. This will be even more important if you are planning to take your studies back or change your field of study
- the professional project.
