Why Study in Nancy?

Nancy is one of France's most important university cities, welcoming around 52,000 students every year across its various campuses and higher education institutions. With three universities and nine engineering schools, the city offers an impressive range of academic programmes spanning science, engineering, business, arts, humanities and healthcare.

One of the first things new students notice about Nancy is its vibrant atmosphere and outstanding quality of life. The city regularly ranks among France's most attractive student destinations thanks to its rich cultural scene, manageable size and welcoming environment.

To the southwest of the city lies the renowned ARTEM campus, one of Europe's most ambitious higher education projects. ARTEM brings together Mines Nancy, the National School of Art and Design and ICN Business School on a single campus, creating a unique environment where engineering, management and creativity intersect.

Nancy offers an exceptional living environment for both residents and students. Its extensive public transport network, including buses, regional trains and rapid transit services, makes getting around simple and efficient. Throughout the year, students can enjoy major cultural events such as Nancy Jazz Pulsations and the famous Saint Nicholas celebrations.

The city is also renowned for its architectural heritage, including the iconic Place Stanislas, historic landmarks, medieval streets and impressive fortified gateways. Many students find themselves wanting to stay in Nancy long after graduation. Its location also provides easy access to other major cities in northeastern France, including nearby Metz.

Choosing the Right Neighbourhood in Nancy

Finding the right student accommodation starts with choosing the right area of the city. While shared housing or renting a room in a private home can appeal to some students, a private apartment in a student residence often provides the ideal balance between independence, comfort and a productive study environment.

One of the best ways to narrow down your search is to consider your daily commute and identify which area offers the most convenient access to your university via the Stan transport network.

Nancy is organised around several key academic districts:

• Artem / Vandœuvre

The city's leading science, engineering and business hub, ideal for students attending engineering schools, management programmes and technical faculties.

• City Centre / Charles III

The cultural and commercial heart of Nancy, located close to the TGV railway station, the Faculty of Law and the IECA. This area offers excellent transport connections and a vibrant student atmosphere.

• Boudonville / Scarpone

A historic and greener part of the city, particularly popular with students studying at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. The area combines a quieter residential setting with convenient access to central Nancy.
