With that in mind, School 42 now wants to open in the US, with an even bigger school with even more students, with - again - still no measurable and objective data points about the value it provides to students who are looking for a job, or companies looking to hire “engineers”. You can also read articles about people who have been there ( here for example).

My point here is simply that nobody really has any solid evidence that it’s in fact a great school (again, it’s actually just too soon to tell). It’s a small sample of course, and I’m absolutely sure they have very good students too. In fact, the lack of such public data (shared by School42) regarding the outcome for students suggests that they indeed might not have this data yet (which is perfectly normal, we have to give them enough time to actually graduate the students).įrom a simple online search, and from my personal experience interviewing some of School 42’s students for internships at my company, I was not particularly impressed of the level of students at School 42 and ended up not hiring any of them. It’s therefore hard to believe that School 42 has any solid data and a clear idea of the actual value of their curriculum and their approach.

School 42 in France has not yet graduated its first promotion (the 3-year course started in November 2013, so the first batch will be theoretically graduating this November). School 42 has first started its first class in Paris, France in November 2013 and opened a free University accepting 1000 students every year.
