At aivancity, inclusion is not an abstract principle: it is a prerequisite for excellence.
  • As a mission-driven institution, aivancity believes that potential should never be limited by financial means, social background, disability or a less conventional educational pathway. This conviction is reflected in concrete measures designed to make our courses accessible, support students’ educational journeys and provide long-term support for the success of every student.

Scholarships
To overcome financial barriers

aivancity offers several funding schemes to ensure that tuition fees do not act as a barrier to accessing a high-quality education. Each year, the aivancity Endowment Fund awards up to 20 scholarships covering tuition fees for the entire duration of the Grande École Programme, excluding the year funded by the company as part of the work-study scheme. These scholarships are awarded on the basis of financial need and academic and extracurricular excellence.
Le stage en entreprise
A strong commitment to disability and accessibility
  • aivancity welcomes people with disabilities and works with a disability liaison officer to support applicants and students, provide the necessary adjustments and facilitate integration both in training and in employment. The campuses are designed to accommodate people with reduced mobility, and adjustments can be made as required, including during examinations.
This initiative forms part of a wider commitment to making higher education in AI genuinely accessible to as many people as possible.

Responsible work-study schemes: a practical social innovation

Because access to work-study programmes can sometimes depend on deadlines or external opportunities, aivancity has created a unique scheme: the responsible work-study programme.
  • For students admitted to the MSc in Data Management and the MSc in Data Engineering & Cloud Computing, the school covers 100 per cent of the first-year tuition fees if no work placement contract has been signed within three months of the start of the academic year. This allows students to continue their studies as normal, benefit from enhanced support and remain fully integrated into school life.

The new Pilot Programme of Excellence

At the start of the 2026 academic year, aivancity is launching a unique Pilot Programme for Excellence, offering 20 full scholarships for the Grande École Programme.

This scheme aims to identify and support high-potential candidates, regardless of their social background, with a target of at least 50 per cent women amongst the successful applicants.

In addition to funding, it provides for an enhanced programme comprising 200 hours of additional training per year, designed as a genuine ‘school within a school’, with the aim of training outstanding AIgineers¼ who are responsible and representative of the diversity of talent.
