CDI - Collège des Ingénieurs
The CDI is an international independent institution for post-graduate education.
It was created in France and in Germany and in partnership with leading corporations throughout the world. The aim is to bring together top engineering graduates with real leadership potential from the best universities in Europe, America and China, and to train them to be future high potential managers.
On September 30th, 2003, EADS and the CDI signed an official agreement laying down the basis for long term co-operation in the field of education in Germany and France. EADS thereby shows its commitment to offering excellent career prospects to high potential graduates from the CDI.

Franco-German Master EPF – FH München
Since 1992, the French EPF and the German Fachhochschule München engineering university have been working together to set up an integrated Franco-German programme.
In order to mark the 10th anniversary of the programme students now no longer receive a double-diploma, but an integrated Franco-German Masters-degree in “Production & Information Technologies”, a degree which meets the new standards of the European Educational System. EADS officially sponsors the EPF/FHM double-diploma. 2003 graduates were sponsored by the EADS Corporate Research Center (CRC) on the theme of “Production and Automisation”.
