AgroParisTech (officially French ''Institut des sciences et industries du vivant et de l'environnement'', or ''Paris Institute of Technology for Life, Food and Environmental Sciences'')〔English naming according to (English brochure )〕 is a French university-level institution, also known as a "Grande Ecole". It was founded on January 1, 2007, by the merger of three life sciences grandes écoles. Leader in life sciences and agronomy, AgroParisTech is one of the foremost and most prestigious Grandes Ecoles. AgroParisTech is one of the founding members of the Université Paris-Saclay, which will be the largest European multidisciplinary campus. AgroParisTech will consequently be moving to the Paris-Saclay business and research-intensive cluster in 2018. AgroParisTech is a member of the UniverSud Paris and the Paris Institute of Technology (or Paris Tech). The latter is a consortium of ten graduate institutes of science and engineering. AgroParisTech is also part of 'The Life and Environmental Science and Technology Hub' of the Paris region, together with INRA, Cemagref, AFSSA, the Ecole nationale vétérinaire d'Alfort, and the Versailles National School of Landscape architecture. == History== AgroParisTech is the merger of three graduate institutes of science and engineering located around Paris: * ''Institut national agronomique Paris-Grignon'' (INA P-G), founded in 1826 * ''École nationale du génie rural, des eaux et des forêts'' (ENGREF), founded in 1964 * ''École nationale supérieure des industries agricoles et alimentaires'' (ENSIA), founded in 1893. The public higher education system in France includes universities and other institutions called the “Grandes Ecoles”. The “Grandes Ecoles” are the best rated pathways for higher education in Engineering and Management. The vast majority of the chief executives in major French companies and of top managers in the French Administration are graduates from the “Grandes Ecoles”. The features are: * A very selective admission process through which students are either admitted by a nationwide entrance exam (notably after two or three years of “prépas”) or by the virtue of excellent academic records; * 5 years (Master’s degrees) to 8 years (PhD and post-Master’s degrees) of higher education; * The degree course at the “Grandes Ecoles” includes compulsory internships in laboratories and companies, in France or abroad * The prestige of the “Grandes Ecoles” and contacts with major enterprises provide an easy access to the job market. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Agro ParisTech」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
