ISBA TP: an engineering school specializing in civil engineering

The Institut Supérieur du Bâtiment et des Travaux Publics (ISBA TP) is a consular training establishment in Marseille, expert in specializing engineers in the field of civil engineering.

Created in 1952 by the PACA region’s construction and public works companies to meet the urgent need for major post-war reconstruction projects and infrastructure modernization in the Marseilles region, the Institut Supérieur Bâtiment et des Travaux Publics is one of only two specialist engineering schools in the field of civil engineering in France.

Since its foundation, ISBA-TP has been developing its teaching expertise with and for the professional world. As a school of the Aix-Marseille-Provence Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCIAMP), our engineering school can count on the professional network of its region. The school has been developing high-level training programs in a tradition of quality and innovation recognized by the French government since 1953. The ISBA TP diploma has been certified by the CTI (Commission des Titres d’Ingénieur) since 1957.

ISBA TP is one of France’s leading engineering schools, specializing in INFRASTRUCTURE AND GEOTHECHNICS, ENGINEERING WORKS, ADVANCED MODELING IN PARASISM AND NUCLEAR ENERGY, and ECOCONNECT INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS.

ISBA TP: training top-level engineers

The vocation of this leading engineering school in Marseille is to train post-master’s engineers in construction and public works in one of three specialties:

Specialization in infrastructure related to land transport (engineering structures): this specialization enables the design and construction of tomorrow’s civil engineering structures, essential to the development of national and international infrastructures.
Specialization in soil/structure interaction – infrastructure and geotechnics (tunnels, dams, wind farms, maritime structures): this specialization covers the whole range of soil/structure interaction issues.
Specialization in earthquake engineering with advanced modeling (limiting the effects of seismic events on constructions): this specialization enables students to manage a construction project taking into account seismic stresses on the structure(s), and more generally to model complex structures under specific loads (shock, tornado, etc.).
Specialization in Intelligent and Eco-connected Buildings: all issues relating to the integration of environmental and ecological constraints into the act and monitoring of construction.
The school develops course modules tailored to the needs of companies, while respecting the student’s professional project as far as possible. As soon as they arrive at the school, students will be directed towards course modules geared towards Construction Management or Engineering Design Offices.

ISBA TP: a school with expertise in civil engineering

Our specialized engineering school provides the following services:

Training of engineers specializing in civil engineering at BAC+6 level,
Expertise and consulting services for companies, owners and contractors,
Applied research on subjects related to the development of new technologies,
Continuing education: à la carte training for inter and intra-companies.

ISBA TP: a school close to its students

ISBA TP is the only training organization specializing in soil/structure interaction and complex civil engineering structures in the PACA region.

Every year, ISBA TP trains 140 engineers, students from France and abroad. Our teaching teams are committed to passing on values such as openness to the world, ethics, rigor and professionalism to all our engineering students. These values are essential in the construction industry.

Last but not least, our school is first and foremost a local school for its engineering students: the limited size of our classes enables our administrative and teaching teams to be as close as possible to the students’ concerns, both in terms of their studies and their daily life in Marseille.

CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) policy:

ISBA TP in Marseille is deeply committed to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). We believe in making a positive contribution to our community and the environment. This commitment is reflected in our day-to-day actions, whether promoting sustainable practices on a campus surrounded by nature, raising awareness of ecological issues or working with partners who share our values.

ISBA TP: A Center of Excellence in Civil Engineering Training with an Exceptional Teaching Team

Our expertise is based on a rich and recognized training program in Civil Engineering. The strength of our school lies in the active involvement of industry professionals acting as permanent and part-time lecturers, guaranteeing a transmission of knowledge steeped in the concrete realities of the field.

Over the years, we have painstakingly built up a top-quality teaching team, bringing together distinguished national and international research professors. This synergy of expertise is complemented by the regular involvement of seasoned civil engineering professionals. They provide our engineering students with much more than just academic instruction: they share their in-depth knowledge, know-how, interpersonal skills and, above all, their practical experience in the field.

At ISBA TP, teaching goes beyond theory: it’s rooted in professional reality. This fusion of academic expertise and operational knowledge provides our students with a comprehensive training program tailored to the current challenges of the civil engineering world. Our commitment to pedagogical excellence and the relevance of our teaching make ISBA TP a true melting pot where the next generation of specialized engineers is forged, ready to take on the complex challenges of industry.

Equity of opportunity within the school:

At ISBA TP, we believe in equal opportunity for all our students. We strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone has the opportunity to flourish, regardless of background, background or circumstances. Our teaching team works actively to ensure equal opportunities for learning and academic success for all.

Computer loans throughout the year:

To facilitate access to the digital resources our students need to succeed, ISBA TP lends computers throughout the year. We understand the importance of technological tools in the learning process, which is why we make these resources available to support our students in their success.

Accessibility for the disabled :

ISBA TP is committed to providing a campus that is accessible to all. We have put in place facilities to facilitate access for people with disabilities. What’s more, we have appointed a campus disability advisor to support and respond to the special needs of students with disabilities. Our aim is to create an inclusive environment where everyone can participate fully in student life.
