The École nationale supérieure d'ingénieurs de Poitiers (ENSI Poitiers) is a French generalist engineering grande école in Poitiers, the regional capital of Poitou-Charentes. Its focus is on the protection of the environment and is part of the University of Poitiers, one of the oldest universities in Europe.

History

Its roots come from Institut de sciences et techniques de Poitiers, a department of the University of Poitiers created in 1972. The Graduate Engineering School took over from it and was established in 1984. Then its buildings have been moved in 1996, in the campus, and it is located with the number B1.

At the beginning, the French grande école was called École supérieure d'ingénieurs de Poitiers (ESIP) and in 2010 it has changed its name.[1]
