Student life at the ENSCR is not limited to scientific studies but involves many different activities, mainly organised by the Students’ Union (Bureau des élèves – BDE).
The BDE is an essential society at the ENSCR. It organises the major events of the year (freshers’ week, freshers’ weekend, leaving ceremonies, TIC etc). It also works throughout the year to support the school and offer students a variety of activities. Its main tasks are to help new arrivals to get to know one another and find their bearings, to create a good atmosphere between the various years, to organise social events, to create partnerships with the other schools on the campus (Supélec, Esir, Insa etc.), and in general to manage the day-to day life of the school (café, laundrette, practical work kit etc.).
