On February 12, the University of Montpellier is opening its doors... in person!
Because when faced with doubts and questions, good advice can make all the difference, the entire teaching community and dedicated services at the University of Montpellier are mobilizing to answer all questions from high school students, university students, and working professionals who want to learn more about our educational offerings. The previous edition was organized entirely remotely, but this year, the University of Montpellier's new Open House will once again be held in person on Saturday, February 12, 2022, in compliance with the health guidelines in effect at the time of the event.
On the university's various campuses, high school students, university students, employees, and job seekers will be able to discover the 600 or so degrees offered by the University of Montpellier in law, economics, management, health, science, education, and technology, through traditional channels, continuing education, or work-study programs. In particular, it will be possible to attend specific conferences.
This open house will be an opportunity to showcase the 17 faculties, schools, and institutes through campus tours, university libraries, and student housing. Beyond exploring the sites, the goal of this event is to encourage interaction with students, teachers, information and guidance officers, tutors, student associations, and others who will be on hand to answer questions about university education and student life.
The Handiversité team will also be present to provide information on the range of support services available to students with disabilities.
Finding accommodation, eating, learning, playing sports, receiving medical care... it is essential to be aware of all the services that facilitate student life on a daily basis and enable you to prepare for your next few years at university with peace of mind. In addition to opportunities to talk to representatives of the services that facilitate student life on a daily basis, you will also be able to meet with the CROUS.
The organization of this day and the reception arrangements are subject to the health situation and the resulting regulatory requirements. Therefore, the program presented on the university's website is subject to change in order to adapt to developments in the situation.
