The school was founded in 1902 by the Université de Franche-Comté as Laboratoire de Chronométrie. In 1961, it turned to École nationale supérieure de chronométrie et micromécanique (ENSCM). Since the school is established in an area with a strong legacy on horology, Supmicrotech is deeply dedicated to the design and manufacturing of micro-mechanical devices and robotics.^{[citation needed]}

It is located in the city of Besançon, France eastern area (by car, 4 hours from Paris, 2 hours and a half from Strasbourg and 2 hours and a half from Lyon).

The school educates 250 engineers every year on 6 fields:

• Materials science
• Mechatronics
• Mechanical engineering
• Micromechanics
• Optoelectronics and Microelectromechanical systems
• Industrial engineering

Students can choose to spend their last year within Supmicrotech or in one of the schools of the Polyméca network.
