As the regional economic and cultural capital, Marseille offers students a university environment that is favorable to their development. The Marseille campuses are at the cutting edge of research and offer exceptional technological facilities.
The Château-Gombert campus has been home to the IUT since 2021 and is a precursor to the future Civil Engineering campus in partnership with Polytech Marseille and the Faculty of Sciences. The large number of shared laboratories and industrial and research measurement benches give students a perspective on the industrial and research fields.
The city of Marseille, with its proximity to the sea, offers sports and cultural activities that are particularly attractive to students.

Students with scholarships or in financial difficulty, the Southern Region gives you a helping hand to finance your complementary health insurance with the Pass Mutuelles.
It is not compulsory for students to take out a complementary health insurance policy. While some students can still benefit from their family's health insurance, others choose not to pay the monthly cost of complementary health insurance, which often leads to a lack of care due to a lack of funds. It should be noted that the price of a complementary health insurance varies according to the profile of the insured, young or old, with existing pathologies, etc. Also, single students who receive emergency student aid can apply for complementary health aid. This aid allows them not to pay for doctor and dentist consultations, treatments, nursing care and hospitalisation costs.
