INSA
Founded in 1957 by Gaston Berger and the rector Capelle, INSA was at first a school meant for senior engineers and technicians, but it quickly became an engineering school only.
Its uniqueness was to enroll student straight after their Baccalauréat (equivalent to A level) and not after a two-year-preparatory class like the other French engineering schools. The purpose was to allow students from working and middle classes to do great studies at low cost.
Since the beginning, the school has been developed on a sharing and exchange policy. That's why it invests a lot in the boarding school and in the support of associations. Nowadays INSA counts more than 100 associations (sport, music, charity, culture,...).
The first promotion counted 300 students. Nowadays, it has more than 4500 engineering students of each 1400 graduate each year. INSA is no more a single school but a group of five schools located in Lyon, Strasbourg, Rennes and Rouen. However, Lyon is not only the oldest, but also the largest.
