THE FOUNDATION'S SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMME
The Grenoble INP Foundation works with Grenoble INP - UGA to enable talented students of all backgrounds to successfully undertake long-term scientific and technological studies. Our scholarship programme has been running since 2010, the year the Foundation was created. It is funded thanks to the patronage of our founders, Grenoble INP alumni and our partners to promote equal opportunities, diversity and contribute to the excellence and influence of the institution.

THE ‘CHALLENGE 1ST IDEA’ SCHOLARSHIP

These projects will benefit from: - technological building blocks from the laboratories in which Grenoble INP – UGA is involved, - the expertise and support of the institute's teacher-researchers. The aim is to encourage the emergence of innovative ideas by giving project leaders the means to explore, structure and develop their initial entrepreneurial intuition.
