History

EFREI has been founded in 1936, under the name of École Française de Radioélectricité (EFR). The school's facilities were located at 10, Rue Amyot in the 5th arrondissement of Paris.

In 1945, an agreement with the government allowed students to receive financial assistance for the first time.

An engineering department was created in 1947; the "EFR" qualification was certified by the commission for engineering qualifications in 1957.

In 1969, the teaching of computer science has been introduced - naturally, networking also became part of the syllabus.

In 1987, EFREI was the only faculty for those wanting to become engineers. That year, a second site in Villejuif was opened; student numbers increased from 70 to 160. More extension projects have taken place since, and in September 2001, EFREI was moved, the entire campus being situated at 30, Avenue de la République, Villejuif. The faculty of Information Technology and Systems Management numbered more than 300 students for the first time.

In 2003 its curriculum was made compliant with the Bologna process and is now delivering a degree that is equivalent to a Master's degree in the European higher education area.The same year the school stopped renting the building in Amyot St., all the classes take now place on the Villejuif site.

Since the start of the business year in 2003, EFREI has taken back its lead in the field of business management as part of IT courses. Subsequently the college became known as the College for Engineering, Information Technology and Business Studies.

EFREI's most notable alumnus is André Truong who created the Micral, the earliest commercial personal computer based on a micro-processor. In France, he is referred to as the father of the personal computerFact|date=February 2007. Another notable alumnus is Saloth Sar, also known as Pol Pot.
