From September 21 to 25, 2026, ESTIA held the inaugural edition of SEM’ – Student Engagement Week, an initiative designed to foster student involvement in various projects and career paths.

Throughout the week, students had the opportunity to explore the many facets of engagement, covering areas such as entrepreneurship, the space sector, international mobility, and the EU4Dual program. They interacted with dedicated teams, heard inspiring testimonials, and discovered different ways to get involved within and beyond the institution.
The first edition of SEM’ saw strong participation. Approximately 90 students gathered at the launch to explore the three main themes: entrepreneurship, international mobility, and careers in the space sector. The Space Day event particularly attracted around 70 students, with about thirty already expressing interest in initiatives developed around ESTIA Space.
International mobility also generated significant enthusiasm, with a full amphitheater of approximately 120 students learning about opportunities abroad. Programs like international exchanges, European experiences, and the MOB’E initiative, linked to the EU4Dual network, have prompted students to concretely consider their future mobility plans.
Student entrepreneurship was a central focus of the week. An event dedicated to startups brought together around 80 students, sparking numerous entrepreneurial ambitions. About thirty new student-entrepreneurs were identified, along with several candidates interested in the National Student-Entrepreneur Status (SNEE). A team of student ambassadors is also being formed, attracting interest from about fifteen students.
Beyond the numbers, SEM’ aimed to highlight the journeys and initiatives that help students build their academic and professional paths. This week was made possible by the dedication of the ESTIA teams and the many engaged students who shared their experiences.
