University of Grenoble

The University Grenoble Alpes is a major player in higher education and research in France. As the world is becoming more and more competitive, our institution aims to better respond to the challenges the world poses in universities today and in the future and be more visible and attractive internationally.
The University Grenoble Alpes already features in the top 100 and top 200 universities in major international rankings (Reuters, Shanghai, Times Higher Education, and QS, for example) for some of its scientific fields. The UGA rivals the best universities in the world thanks to its research and the numerous educational innovations it has implemented.
To strengthen its impact given the many challenges of the 21st century, the University Grenoble Alpes has created a partnership foundation, a strategic facility for innovation and development: using this foundation, the university intends to boost the impact it has on the challenges of today and tomorrow, regionally and internationally.
The foundation aspires to combine sciences and cultures to advance knowledge and get young people ready to build the world of tomorrow. It encourages the emergence of pioneering projects and generates resources.
The University Grenoble Alpes (UGA) is one of France's leaders in higher education and research.
A comprehensive, global university, the UGA enrolls about 45,000 students each year in its high-quality academic programs and maintains 80 research centers in all disciplines.
The UGA offers a wide range of programs at the undergraduate, master's, and doctoral levels, open to all students regardless of nationality. We also offer a range of programs taught in English and a variety of innovative programs preparing students for study and work in a global marketplace.
The UGA is an excellent choice for short-stay programs: students from our exchange partners can study abroad with us for either a semester or a full year, and the UGA Summer School combines high-quality scientific training with a variety of outdoor, cultural, and linguistic activities. Innovation and Research
An international leader in both pure and applied research, the UGA also benefits from a uniquely innovative setting. Our researchers enjoy ties to a thriving local community of international businesses and industry, particularly in scientific and high-tech fields. We can also collaborate with major European research facilities located in and around Grenoble to produce outstanding results.
Located on a self-contained, 175-hectare campus, the UGA offers a wide range of activities for students, faculty, and staff. Community members can volunteer, get involved in arts and culture, or participate in one of 35 different sports – there is something for everyone. International students can also join the university-sponsored, student-run international student association, IntEGre.
