In 2023, the number of international students in tertiary education in ICT in France stood at approximately 14.49 thousand. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 indicate a steady growth in this segment, with the number of students increasing each year from 14.58 thousand in 2024 to 14.94 thousand in 2028.

Year-on-year growth between 2024 and 2028 is only marginal, highlighting a slow but consistent interest among international students in pursuing ICT disciplines in France. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over these five years is projected to reflect a modest upward trend.

Future trends to watch for:

Possible shifts in student preferences due to emerging technologies and evolving industry demands.
Impact of educational policies and France’s global competitiveness in attracting international talent.
Influence of global economic and geopolitical factors on international student mobility.
