Französisch Begriff oder Satz:Arts et Métiers
Bios of people important to the F1 racing history of a major French auto maker. I don't know whether they're referring to CNAM (Conservatoire des Arts et Métiers) or ENSAM (Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts et Métiers). And I don't think I can just leave it as Arts et Métiers.
Can anyone help?
e.g.
"Né en 1945 à Marseille. Ingénieur. Diplômé des Arts et Métiers. Directeur technique [X] F1 de 1976 à 1978"
Stephanie Mitchel: 1:42am Feb 12, 2007: I should have clarified - I'm not interested in a translation of the term Arts et Métiers. I want to know (perhaps from a French citizen) which school is offhandedly referred to as 'Arts et Métiers' - CNAM or ENSAM - and otherwise, I will simply describe it as a top French graduate engineering school. writeaway: 8:13am Feb 12, 2007: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89cole_nationale_sup%C3%A9r...'arts_et_m%C3%A9tiers
Erklärung: Searching briefly on google.FR for "Diplômé des Arts et Métiers", and then looking at the details of the hits for the people who describe themselves thus, the first 8 (selected at random) that I looked at who provided further details were all ENSAM graduates. Possibly not statistically significant. Altho' in addition, the first 2 hits were themselves just simply 2 ENSAM schools.
You could do the same search yourself to confirm it, but my feeling is that it quite probably tends to refer to ENSAM.

Grande Ecole of Engineering
Erklärung: Oxford/Hachette Dictionary also confirms "ENSAM" = Ecole nationale supérieure des arts et métiers = les Arts et métiers = les Arts.
In fact, the same target term translates all three source terms listed here above.
