Aim 
The aim is to increase the recruitment of student engineers in Agreenium member higher education institutions in order to increase the rate of foreign student engineers in schools, i.e. a total flow of 300 to 400 students per year.
Expected achievements
Students must follow at least two years of training at the engineering school. First, it is a question of organizing a shared selection of student-engineers to allow experimental recruitment in the 2nd year on targeted student pools. In the medium term, two types of recruitment are envisaged: recruitment in the second year via an existing "DE" type procedure; recruitment in the first year of school, which requires the creation of a "BE competition".
Agreenium’s role
Implementation of the selection platform, coordination of the prefiguration mission, preparation of communication materials, communication campaign, organization of selection tests.
