The university, with over 7,000 students and about 2,400 employees from all over the world, offers a genuinely global learning environment. International students make up over 60% of the student body, and most academics and personnel come from other countries.
Programmes are typically taught in two languages (French/English or French/German), with some taught in three languages and others fully in English, particularly at the master’s level.
