Gay-Lussac Engineering Alliance Prebachelor Programme

Institution Introduction

The Fédération Gay-Lussac (FGL), also known as the Gay-Lussac Engineering Alliance, was founded in 1994. It consists of 20 elite engineering schools in France, specializing in chemistry and chemical engineering. These institutions focus on high-level scientific research and the development of top-tier engineers in chemistry-related fields.

The alliance is named after Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac, an 18th-century French physicist and chemist. He is known for his discoveries in gas laws, the development of potassium and sodium production methods, and the discovery of boron and iodine.
