Open house in a nutshell

Across the various campuses, visitors will be able to discover more than 650 courses offered by the University of Montpellier in law, economics, management, health, science, education, and technology, through traditional channels, apprenticeships, and continuing education. This open house will be an opportunity to showcase the 17 faculties, schools, and institutes through campus tours, university libraries, and student housing. The aim of this event is to engage with the entire university community, which will be on hand to answer questions about courses and student life at the university.

Why come and study at the University of Montpellier?

With its rich history and intellectual heritage, UM is a leading institution, distinguished by its commitment to academic excellence and the diversity of programs offered (more than 450 programs across 74 majors). Studying at the university means benefiting from the expertise of its Professors, who are often internationally recognized for their remarkable contributions in their fields and who share their cutting-edge knowledge with students. It also means being able to choose multidisciplinary programs from the moment you enter the university, focused on the major societal challenges of tomorrow, or even doing international internships. It means benefiting from free support throughout your studies (revision week, tutoring, etc.) and towards professional integration. The numerous partnerships established with companies and organizations enable us to offer training programs aligned with the needs of the job market.

Open House Days at UM: choosing the right path after Parcoursup

Choosing your path on Parcoursup isn't always easy. Open houses allow you to make a less abstract decision: the entire university community is mobilized to answer questions, dispel doubts, and offer advice. Teachers will be there, of course, but so will students who will share their recent experiences. It is also an opportunity to visit innovative educational spaces and attractive university facilities.

... But also for those who wish to continue on to a Master's degree

The entire range of courses on offer is presented during these open days, from first-year undergraduate programs to master's degrees. For high school students, this allows them to explore long-term study options, while those already in higher education can plan their next steps by talking to course leaders.

… or who want to return to school

There are many opportunities to continue your studies after a break. Open House Days are also an opportunity to find out more and take a step towards a new future.
