JPO at the UM: choosing your path after Parcoursup

Choosing your orientation on Parcoursup is not always easy. The Open House will help you make up your mind in a less abstract way: the entire university community is on hand to answer questions, dispel doubts and offer advice. Teachers will be on hand, of course, as well as students who will be sharing their recent experiences. It's also an opportunity to visit innovative teaching facilities and attractive university living spaces.

.... But also for those wishing to pursue a Master's degree

The entire range of courses on offer is presented at these days, from first year to Master's level: for high school students, this enables them to project themselves towards longer-term study possibilities, and for those already in higher education, to plan their next course of study by talking to course leaders.

... or who want to go back to school

There are many ways to continue your studies after a break. The JPO is also an opportunity to find out more and take a step towards a new future.
