A few words about ENSMAC: ENSMAC (ex ENSCBP, Graduate School of Chemistry, Biology and Physics) trains graduate engineers during a three-years program specialized in Chemistry, Food and Material Engineering. They go on to occupy top academic and industrial positions in fields related to chemistry, environment, energy, automotive, aeronautics and pharmaceutics. The school is strongly committed to advanced research and industrial partnerships. ENSMAC – Bordeaux INP’s engineering programs (Master’s – year 5) are open to students from around the world.

LCPO staff teaching at ENSMAC: 5 full professors, 7 associate and assistant professors, 2 CNRS researchers

LCPO staff employed by the institution: 2 full professors, 1 associate professor, 2 assistant professors and 1 engineer
