Most Similar Schools Locally
- In terms of fields, École des Métiers de l'Environnement is the nearest neighbour, with quality, geotechnics and microbiology and genetics again at the core; it has almost the same size, at about 500 students, and is private, whereas this institution is public.
- École Nationale Supérieure de Géologie de Grenoble overlaps with this institution on quality, geotechnics and microbiology and genetics, so the two are easy to compare, and it covers marine science and materials as well, and is smaller, enrolling about 300 students against roughly 500 here.
- A good alternative in the same country is ENSTIB, which likewise covers quality, fluid dynamics and civil engineering; it teaches at the same levels, namely master's and doctoral, and covers agriculture and industrial design as well.
- Among national alternatives, IMT Mines Alès stands out for its focus on geotechnics, fluid dynamics and civil engineering, and it is also a public institution, and teaches at the same levels, namely master's and doctoral.
- For students who like the quality, geotechnics and fluid dynamics focus of this school but want another option nearby, École Nationale des Travaux Publics de l'État fits well: it covers logistics and transportations as well, and is larger, enrolling about 1,200 students against roughly 500 here.
Most Similar Schools Abroad
- In Switzerland, Eawag - Eidgenössische Anstalt für Wasserversorgung, Abwasserreinigung und Gewässerschutz teaches much the same core subjects, quality, geotechnics and microbiology and genetics, and it is far smaller, with about 150 students against roughly 500 here, and is also a public institution.
- Paul Scherrer Institut in Switzerland shares the quality, fluid dynamics and structural engineering orientation of this institution, and it is smaller, enrolling about 300 students against roughly 500 here, and is also a public institution.
- Abroad, IHE Delft Institute for Water Education (the Netherlands) covers quality, geotechnics and fluid dynamics in a comparable way, and it also offers certificate programmes and covers marine science as well.
- In Italy, Istituto Universitario di Studi Superiori di Pavia teaches much the same core subjects, civil engineering, structural engineering and robotics, and it covers bioinformatics and bioengineering as well, and has almost the same size, at about 500 students.
- For a study option in Germany with a comparable spread of geotechnics, microbiology and genetics and fluid dynamics, Technische Universität Bergakademie Freiberg is the reference point: it is also a public institution and also offers bachelor's programmes.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”, “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.
**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale:
- known locally
- known locally and internationally
- is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
- is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications
***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
