The Eiffel excellence scholarship program

The Eiffel Scholarship program was developed by the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs, and allows French higher education institutions to attract the best international students onto Master's and PhD degree programs. This year, 3 students have been selected as winners of the Eiffel Scholarship Excellence Program for their academic excellence: Valentina Castro Puerta from the EAFIT University in Colombia, Santiago Jaramillo Ramirez from the Technological University of Pereira in Colombia and Jareny Flores Zamudio from the University of Veracruzana. They were selected thanks to their academic excellence, their very good level of French and their extracurricular activities, through their participation in research activities as well as sports and cultural associations. Valentina, Santiago and Jareny will join the school at the start of the school year in September 2022 in a double-degree course.

"IMT Mines Albi caught my attention among all the possible options, because I saw the opportunity to grow not only intellectually, but also as a person”, Santiago Jaramillo Ramirez.

“The more I looked into it, the more I was attracted to IMT Mines Albi, especially in regard to its majors and proximity to businesses”, Jareny
Flores Zamudio.

“I chose the school mainly because of the teaching it offers. I really like the generalist approach to engineering, and the fact that it will open up even more performance and employment opportunities for me after my studies”, Valentina Castro Puerta
