Hello...
I was searching the web for universities in France, but I could'nt decide which is the best for studying engineering.
Any help?

According to former French colleagues (blame them if I am wrong), the French higher education system has an almost caste-like system with the grand ecoles having a reputation of their graduates being on career auto-pilot. So particularly if you want to stay in France, you could consider looking into them - at least if you are into elitism.

I can help you, do you have precise questions? (if you speak french, send me a PM)
 
first of all if you want to study engineering in france,
Engineering schools (Ecole Polytechnique, Centrale Paris/Lyon/Nantes, Paris Tech etc . . .) will provide that kind of elite education you'd want.
what do you want to know about these schools? what kind of Engineering do you want to study?
 
may i know the chances of working in France universities in the field of microelectronics.
 
Not sure what you mean by working at a french university, did you mean study?
 
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
