Introduction :
Claude Bernard Lyon 1 University has attained excellence, both in the fields of higher education and research. High academic levels in a wide variety of subjects, from health sciences to science, technology and sport studies, mean that Lyon 1 can count itself among the best French and European universities.

Lyon 1 University welcomes you with courses and tuition tailored to the needs of modern society and industry. We offer more than 450 degree programs in Health, Sciences, Technology and Sports. 90 % of our students study in vocational courses and the university delivers more than 10 000 diplomas each year.

Last year, 46 141 students attended courses at Lyon 1, of which 10,3 % were foreign students, from 140 different countries.

For Lyon 1, the development of the quality of tuition is a top priority. This development is the work of a specific department: a national and European leader in the field of accompaniment of teachers. Educational innovations (serious games), multimedia resource creation (3D animations) or the development and use of a educational web platform (Claroline Connect) are different illustrations of their work.

Research conducted in the 65 scientific laboratories of Lyon 1 University generate 5000 international publications a year as well as 31 patent registrations, making Lyon 1 the first French university for patent registrations.

Lyon 1 University has 14 sites throughout the French Rhône-Alpes region. Our university greatly contributes to the regional development through its partnerships with local and national firms, as well as regional political institutions.

Lyon 1 University offers an active and rewarding student experience; offering a wide range of cultural, sporting and physical activities. More than fifty clubs on the different campuses reflect the liveliness and quality of student life at Lyon 1. Our university’s main sites in Lyon also offer the opportunity for participation in cultural and sporting events that take place around us in our dynamic European city. Lyon is a classified UNESCO World Heritage Site, but also a city that continues to evolve, looking resolutely towards the future. Houses, companies and leisure areas make every district a bustling area.

All-in-all, Lyon is an outward looking city where life is pleasant and nature is never far away. Lyon 1 University contributes to this dynamic city, being highly committed to the development of international partnerships on every continent.
