The academic year runs from the beginning of September to the beginning of July for all our programs (except for the MSc).
Students benefit from vacation periods, including two weeks at Christmas and at least 8 weeks in the summer.
For exchange students, the 1st semester usually starts mid-September and finishes by the end of January. The second semester lasts from mid-February to mid-June.
The detailed calendar of school vacations and the division of the semesters will be communicated to you on the first day of the school year.
These dates are provided for information purposes only and are subject to change.
