The Grenoble Institute of Technology (Grenoble INP) (''Institut polytechnique de Grenoble'', ''Groupe Grenoble INP'' and before INPG)〔Since May 2006 and the creation of its new website, Grenoble INP has chosen this name to communicate its image across the borders. In the past, names such as ''Grenoble National Polytechnical Institute'' or ''National Polytechnical Institute of Grenoble'' were sometimes used. Grenoble INP calls itself the Grenoble Institute of Technology, or Grenoble INP, on (its English language web site ) (retrieved 2007-1028).〕 is a French technological university system consisting of six engineering schools. Grenoble INP also has a 2 year preparatory class programme, an adult education department, as well as 35 laboratories and a graduate school in Engineering Sciences. More than 1,100 engineers graduate every year from Grenoble INP, making it France's biggest ''grande école''. Most of Grenoble INP is located in Grenoble, except for the ESISAR which is located in Valence. ==History== Grenoble INP was born in the Alpine environment. It was officially founded in 1900 with the creation of the Electrical Engineering Institute. Industrial pioneers of a century ago found that after mastering hydraulic power and creating the initial industrial applications, they had also created a need for well-trained engineers. The first of its type in France, Grenoble INP became polytechnical and grew continuously in scale, becoming the National Polytechnical Institute (INPG) in 1971 with Louis Néel, Nobel Laureate in Physics as its first President. Grenoble INP is currently contributing to the Minatec project, one of Europe's biggest nanosciences research center. 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「Grenoble Institute of Technology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
