AgroParisTech (French pronunciation:[aɡʁopaʁitɛk]; officiallyInstitut national des sciences et industries du vivant et de l’environnement, or Paris Institute of Technology for Life, Food and Environmental Sciences)^[1] is a French higher education institution, known as agrande école. It is a constituent member of theParis-Saclay University. It was founded on January 1, 2007, by the merger of three life sciencesgrandes écoles (INA P-G,ENGREF andENSIA).

AgroParisTech is one of the founding members of theUniversité Paris-Saclay, which will be the largest European multidisciplinary campus. AgroParisTech will consequently be moving to theParis-Saclaybusiness andresearch-intensive cluster in 2021.

AgroParisTech is a part of theParis-Saclay University and a member of theParis Institute of Technology (ParisTech). 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 theParis region, together withINRAE,Cemagref,AFSSA,École nationale vétérinaire d'Alfort and theVersailles National School of Landscape architecture.

AgroParisTech is the merger of three graduate institutes of science and engineering located aroundParis:

• 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 thegrande école. The grandes écoles 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 écoles. 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 ofprépas) 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 écoles includes compulsory internships in laboratories and companies, in France or abroad
• The prestige of the grandes écoles and contacts with major companies provide an easy access to the job market

The university includes a museum, which has objects on loan from institutions inWallis and Futuna, such asUvea Museum Association, including a coca cola bottle dating to 1942.^[2]

AgroParisTech is organized into five departments:

• Agronomy, Forestry, Water and Environmental Science and Technology,
• Life Science and Health,
• Science and Engineering for Food and Bioproducts,
• Social science, Economics and Management,
• Modeling: Mathematics, Informatics and Physics

AgroParisTech offers different Masters:

• 3 different Masters of Engineering (MEng):
  • Agronomy
  • Food Science and Engineering
  • Forestry
• 2 Masters of Science (MSc)
• 1 Master's program with 5 domains that cover most fields of Life Science and Technology
• one of 7 partner universities in the Master of Science in European Forestry program

It also offers:
