  4. The French Higher Education System ~ 80 Universities (XIIIth century): 1500000 students ~ 200 Engineering Schools (XVIth century): 140000 students Engineering Schools: selection of applicants Comprehensive Universities: no selection of applicants Engineering School diplomas: Engineering degree, MSc, PhD Comprehensive Universities diplomas: BSc, MSc, PhD In France, the Engineering degree is equivalent to the MSc degree, but the converse is not true.
