Scientific Center
Grenoble is a major scientific center, especially in the fields of physics, computer science and applied mathematics. Grenoble’s high-tech expertise is mainly revolves around 3 fields :
- Information technology
- Biotechnologies
- New energy technologies
Many fundamental and applied scientific research laboratories are conjointly managed by Joseph Fourier University, Grenoble Institute of Technology, the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and the Commissariat à l’Energie Atomique et aux énergies conservatives (CEA).
The city benefits from the second highest concentration of strategic jobs in France with 14% of the employments, 35 186 jobs, 45% of which specialized in design and research. Grenoble is also the second largest research center in France with 22 800 jobs.
In order to foster this technological cluster university institutions and research organizations united to create GIANT (Grenoble Innovation for Advanced New Technologies) Innovation Campus with the aim of becoming one of the world’s top campus in research, higher education and high-tech.
Located at the heart of the Alps, in outstanding scientific and natural surroundings, the Joseph Fourier University of Grenoble is a leading University in Science, Technology and Health.
The origins of this scientific university can be traced all the way back to 1811 when the scientist Joseph Fourier established a faculty of science in Grenoble.
Featuring in all of the major international rankings (Top 200 World Universities - Shanghai Ranking), the UJF offers initial and further education for jobs of the future in a wide range of fields :
- Physics and Chemistry
- Mathematics and Computer Science
- Biology
- Medicine and Pharmacy
- Engineering and Technology
- Earth Science and Astronomy/Astrophysics
- Environmental Studies
- Geography and Territorial Sciences
- Science of Physical and Sports Activities
Polytech Grenoble is the engineering school of the Joseph Fourier University. Currently, Polytech Grenoble has 900 students. Its creation is due to the combination of engineering educations in the same building in 1996 and its first name was ISTG.
This engineering school belongs to the Polytech network, a French engineering school network, which relies on a strong partnership with industries and provides a choice among seven high-level departments:
- Geotechnical engineering
- Material engineering
- Prevention of industrial risks, occupational health and environment engineering
- Instrumentation and industrial information
- Information technology for health
- Computer networks and multimedia communication
- Electronics and computer industry
