August 2011 - An exceptional engineer:
Georges BESSE

Brief chronology

Christian Marbach

The youth of an alumnus of École Polytechnique

Christian Marbach

This is the story of a child, one coming from a humble background, talented, intelligent, with support for his education, who passed the admissions examination for École Polytechnique. This itinerary might, quite rightly, be said to be a French destiny. Yes, a French destiny… a very fine itinerary that, in France, is not all that exceptional with regard to the first twenty years of education. We notice similarities at the start of careers between Georges Besse and several other “Polytechnicians” with the same pattern: humble family origins; the discovery by an educational system that is capable of detecting and evaluating the outstanding qualities in a child; parents who were initially reluctant in the face of the unknown but then proudly allowed their son to pursue his schooling once they learned that École Polytechnique, which dispenses an education for free, represents both the certainty of a fine trade and opportunities oriented toward serving the national community.
