T.I.M.E. (Top Industrial Managers for Europe) – 53 partners
The T.I.M.E. network was founded in 1989 (the former École Centrale Paris was one of the founding members) and unites 53 of the best engineering schools and universities in Europe and more recently from all over the world (Brazil, China, Japan). Of the more than 3,000 double-degree graduates in the network, more than half completed a CentraleSupélec double degree.
