The Université de Lyon is a world-class academic site of excellence

Following the international jury hearings on November 28, 2019, the IDEXLYON project – 2020 Université de Lyon – received a favorable response.

Since its launch in 2015, the Université de Lyon's anti-plagiarism campaign, entitled “Fantastic plagiarists and how to spot them”, has been a great success amongst the university community. Thanks to this guide on how to prevent plagiarism, students, university staff, and even the professors, researchers and administrative staff, have no excuses for misquoting their sources!

As part of IDEXLYON, five projects were announced as the winners of the Scientific Breakthrough Program call for projects, for amounts of up to 1.2 million euros per project.

As part of IDEXLYON, 24 laureates of the IMPULSION call for projects were announced for amounts of 1.3 million euros.

As part of its CURSUS+ project, winner of the French National Research Agency’s call for “New university programs” projects, the Université de Lyon is organizing a three-year series of lectures called “Student Successes”. The first lecture, “New university admission support schemes”, will take place on Thursday 9 January, 2020, from 2 PM to 5 PM, at the French Institute of Education (Institut français de l’éducation - IFÉ) premises at the ENS de Lyon.

As part of its policy to encourage international applications, the Université de Lyon held its first Staff Week, which took place from November 4 to 8, focusing on the most important aspects of its international relations. It involved more than forty participants, including at least ten European partners.
