I never did an article about my school so going to dedicate some time and write about the university that’s helping build my career.
My school is often criticized by its marketing and teaching methods. It’s probably the first school in France to ever distinguish what’s computer science related and what’s not. ( In most universities you’d be hammered with none CS related courses the first 2 years and a little of ACTUAL related courses).
Being in a competitive world, SUPINFO certainly marked its territory all over France and internationally (China, UK , USA , Canada etc..).
A lot of people (specially teachers or students outside of the school) talk about SUPINFO like it’s an money pumping enterprise because of all the partnerships it has with other companies like Microsoft , Oracle, Cisco and much more. The fact is companies do decide the trends, and if your university doesn’t follow that – you will be left behind!
A lot of talented students have graduated from SUPINFO, and still a lot to come; Imagine Cup (Worldwide tournament organized by Microsoft) is one of the best examples of innovating students showing their talents;and somehow every year SUPINFO proves it self as a competitive leader.
Like every university, there are ups and downs;
It’s every SUPINFO students job to actually make these ups count more, make it work for the best and build up his own path of opportunity and not actually wait for it to happen.
Speaking of which, I’m going to stop bragging about my university and go back to work (yes I make my career happen) hoping the retweets on SUPINFO will calm down!
