Grenoble campus: our accommodation and services


The Grenoble campus at a glance

Location and getting there

 

The Grenoble campus is mainly located in the communes of Saint-Martin-d’Hères and Gières. It is home to the majority of the buildings and teaching departments of the University of Grenoble-Alpes, several engineering schools of the Grenoble Polytechnic Institute, Sciences Po Grenoble as well as research units, university halls and libraries. The campus is easily accessible by public transport (tramway B, C, D and E) and several bus lines. Gières TER station is 13 minutes away via tram B. Although it has excellent public transport links, it is still possible to get to the Grenoble campus by car via the N87 and various departmental roads.

In 2024, Times Higher Education ranked this university seventh in its list of the best French universities.

Campus history and development

 

Built in the early 60s, the Grenoble university campus is now recognised as one of the most beautiful in France with its 3,000 trees, numerous sports and cultural facilities, unusual architecture and 41 works of art. On a 460-acre site, the campus is a great place to study and work.

 

The Institute of Applied Mathematics building was the first to open in October 1963. This was followed by the biology and chemistry buildings and the West residence in 1965.

 

From 1966 to 1971, the university continued to grow, with the opening of the Law & Humanities library (1966), and then the Sciences library (1967). Between 1990 and 2000, the Languages and Cultures Department, the IAE and the shops set up around the Bibliothèques Universitaires tram station were built. This campus has close ties to industry and local life to create a welcoming and participatory environment. Winner of the Plan Campus 2025, the Grenoble campus has received grants enabling it to build new buildings and further establish it among the leading French universities.

Student life in Grenoble

 

Each year, the city of Grenoble attracts around 65,000 students of 180 different nationalities. Offering a unique combination of community, a cultural programme, outings and sports activities, the city really knows how to spoil its students!

 

Restaurants, cafés and museums

 

Grenoble is not all about mountains and the great outdoors. The city centre offers more than a thousand years of history, from the 10th century Notre-Dame Cathedral to the 19th century Immeuble du Progrès building, just across the street. There are many pedestrian streets leading to the historic city centre, where you can enjoy terraces and restaurants, in Place Saint-André opposite the former Palais du Parlement, or near the fountains of Place Grenette.

 

The heart of the city is also green. Head to the Jardin de Ville on a sunny day, stroll in the shade of the hundred-year-old plane trees, meet up with friends on the banks of the Isère, in the Saint-Laurent neighbourhood, or simply visit the many museums – the Grenoble Museum, the Musée de l’Ancien Évêché, the Saint-Laurent Archaeological Museum or the Musée de la Résistance et de la Déportation.

 

Sports facilities, clubs and activities

 

While central Grenoble is home to restaurants and cafés where you can have brunch with friends or relax after a day of classes, the city has plenty for you to discover. As the capital of the Alps, skiing is the main activity in Grenoble in the winter. But this incredible environment is also great for hiking, climbing, cycling, paragliding and horse riding! Grenoble also offers a lively cultural and community life. With the Pass’Région, you can enjoy many events, sports lessons and more for free or at a reduced price!
