Student life is a fundamental feature attracting students to Strasbourg University and must break new ground so as to offer a wide diversity of top-quality support services. The Culture Centre built on the main campus is a living space and medium for cultural expression and the symbol of the unification of the 3 universities.
The University will clarify its educational offer with a clear description of all the courses, available for consultation on the portal of university education in Alsace. It will also set up a careers platform to help school-leavers and students make the right choices. Research
To implement the establishment's scientific policy, Strasbourg University gathered all the tools and resources necessary to provide solid, constant support for research activities so that they may develop their potential to the full, innovative projects, and emerging teams and young researchers who carry the future of the University before them.
Strasbourg University wishes to enhance its research programmes and move closer to the socio-economic world. Beyond the contribution this represents for the learning process and career opportunities for students, the aim is also to increase the University's own resources.
