Mines Douai was founded in 1878 by a presidential decree. At this time, it trained qualified staff for mining activities. In 1965, the School became an Engineering College, no longer concerned with mining but industrial activities. In 1980, after a constant evolution based on adaptation, innovation and anticipation, Mines Douai became the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Mines.
Mines Douai... is a Public Institution depending on the French State, especially on the Ministry of Industry.
The initial training is open to the students from the scientific preparatory course. They are selected on the basis of the national competitive examination “spé”. University students are also admitted. The main objective is to train multidisciplinary engineers, ready to be operational in a specific filed of activity (8 majors) with a double competence (8 specialization domains) preparing them to the different functions of business and developping management skills.
The pedagogical project of the school provides the engineering student with these skills during 3 years education enabling the student to build up his own professional and personal project. Choice, openness and action are the keywords of every engineering student who is building up his own personal project.
The continuing education is a real opportunity for qualified technicians showing at least 3 years professional experience to become engineers. The curriculum is available both, on site (2 years full time at the school including a 6 month final year project) or through e-learning (1 year distance learning followed by 1 year at school and a 6 month final year project).
Taking a great interest in its internationalisation, the Ecole des Mines de Douai created the Industrial and International Relations Department, which is in direct connection with French and foreign partners (universities and companies).
As well as the work placements and the international discovery course, one of the main duties of the International Department is the welcome and the follow-up of international students (undergraduate and postgraduate students). If these ones have any question, they always have the opportunity to go and ask at the International Department.
