Living in Grenoble

Grenoble - there is nowhere nicer to study. In 2013, the main town in the département of Isère smoothly hit top spot in the L’Etudiant/L’Express rankings of towns and cities where living as a student is best. This may be one of reasons why you chose Grenoble to take your course.

Grenoble appeals by virtue of the quality of its universities, the range of course available, the atmosphere, culture, sport, and so on.

The University of Grenoble has some 60,000 students, including more than 7,200 international students covering 180 different nationalities, spread across six institutions:

• Joseph Fourier University (science, technology and health): http://www.ujf-grenoble.fr/
• Pierre Mendès-France University (human and social sciences): www.upmf-grenoble.fr 
• Stendhal University (foreign languages, literature, language and communication): www.u-grenoble3.fr
• University of Savoie (science, engineering sciences, technology, languages, literature, art, human and social sciences): www.univ-savoie.fr
• Grenoble INP (engineering sciences): www.grenoble-inp.fr
• Grenoble Institute of Political Studies: www.sciencespo-grenoble.fr

A lively and festive city centre, with no fewer than 140 bars, cafés and brasseries for a population of 100,000 people, wide open spaces no distance away, surrounded by mountains - just some of the aspects to its appeal.

You can alternate; weekdays on campus, then a weekend on the ski slopes, hiking or climbing. While in the evenings, you can take in a concert at Le Summum (http://www.alpexpo.com/salle-de-concert-grenoble.html) or La Bobine (http://www.labobine.net/). It’s impossible not to find something to do to relax in Grenoble after a hard day’s studying.
