They can even visit different SUPINFO sites, throughout the academic year, attending classes for a few days or even weeks.
Morevoer, in order to ensure the uniformity of training delivered to the students in Bayonne, all the SUPINFO laboratories will be supplied with equipment from the world IT leaders (Microsoft, Cisco, IBM, Apple, Mandriva, Sun, Novell, Oracle...) and will be open at the beginning of the school term.
The full 5-year curriculum of the SUPINFO International Master of Science will be available in Bayonne within a maximum delay of 3 years after its opening.
