- the sports hall, featuring a renovated central floor area of 1,440 m²
- the modernised dining area with a capacity of 550 seats
You can also find classrooms, laboratories, a lecture theatre and more…
Le saviez-vous ?
Designed by the architect Dominique Perrault, best known for the Bibliothèque nationale de France (BNF), the Perrault building is a fine example of contemporary architecture. One of its distinctive features is that, when viewed from the air, it takes the shape of a computer keyboard, with the gym representing the mouse.
The Copernic building nearby
Located at the heart of the campus, right next to the main building, the ‘Copernic’ building – which also houses other departments of Gustave Eiffel University – now features a fully developed virtual tour.
This immersive tour offers an opportunity to explore the main areas used by ESIEE Paris apprentices from five different apprenticeship programmes and by students on the IMAC course, providing a clearer picture of the campus. These include specialist laboratories in fields such as mechanical engineering, smart factories, industrial robotics, networks and IT…
