The {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} ({{#invoke:IPA|main}}) is the foremost technical Grand Corps of the French State (Template:Langx). It is composed of the state industrial engineers. The Corps is attached to the French Ministry of Economy and Finance. Its purpose is to entice French students in mathematics and physics to serve the government and train them for executive careers in France.

Members are educated at the {{#invoke:Lang|lang}}, also known as Mines ParisTech. Each year, the Corps recruits between 10 and 20 members. Most of them are alumni from {{#invoke:Lang|lang}}, who are usually among the top ranked students, others come from {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} (ENS), Télécom Paris or regular graduates of the Mines ParisTech.

During the course of their training, the Corps des Mines engineers have to complete two one-year positions in private companies (one in France and one abroad), followed by a one-year training in public administration, hosted at École nationale supérieure des mines de Paris.

The main aim of the training is to provide theoretical and practical knowledge about how companies operate, together with a sound understanding of government responsibilities in the technical and economic fields.
