Student associations

Let's start with the 3 main bodies in charge of student life:

• ValhalTA, Bureau Des Elèves
• Ts'Art, Bureau Des Arts
• KamaTA, Bureau Des Sports

They are the ones who coordinate the associations activities and organise, among other things, the numerous weekends such as the WEI or the WES (sports weekend)!

Find their contact details here.

It cannot be repeated often enough: a healthy mind, healthy body!

At ENSTA Paris, you have the choice:

Because a great engineering school is also into communication, you can choose your medium!

With ENSTAtané, the school's newspaper, you can participate in the publication of incredible articles, crunchy rants, revolutionary sudokus or moving declarations of love.

TApage is the ENSTA Paris communication association. They offer jumpers and goodies, create the Alpha brochure and help promote the school on social networks (among other things!).

And if you prefer images, join Technimage, the video editing and creation association. Clips, live, short films and a non-serious version of the news, all behind the camera and in a fun atmosphere.

It's a well-known fact that music softens the mood and brings people together.

Whether you are a fan of Rock-Jazz-Funk-Rap-Whatever or classical music, you can play, get on stage and meet other musicians with the associations KVO and OcTAve.

And if you prefer to be behind stage or on the turntables, join Sono, the essential association for all platal parties!

It goes without saying engineering schools mean science associations!
