If you want to study in France, Lyon is a great choice. The city is well-known for the quality of student life. Here you can not only benefit from a first-class education, but also be part of one (or more) of the over 9200 student associations! In 2009, out of a total of 144,000 students enrolled, 12% came from other countries!
Depending on the study program you’re interested in, there is a wide variety of courses you can choose from, whether it’s science (INSA, Ecole Centrale, ENS), business (EM) or arts (National Conservatory of Music and Dance, National School of Arts and Theater Techniques).[1]

Ecole Normale Supérieure

Founded in 1887, the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon (also known as ENS Lyon, ENSL or Normale Sup' Lyon) is considered one of the three top engineering universities in France along with "École Normale Supérieure de Paris" and École Polytechnique. Being a Grande Ecole, ENS Lyon has a tradition in training teachers and researchers in public service. Grande Ecole is a term used to depict higher education establishments different from the public French university system, where the enrollment of students is based on competitive oral and written exams.

Institut National des Sciences Appliquées

Founded in 1957 by Gaston Berger and the rector Capelle, INSA was at first a school meant for senior engineers and technicians, but it quickly became an engineering school only.
Since the beginning, the school has been developed on a sharing and exchange policy. That's why it invests a lot in the boarding school and in the support of associations. Nowadays INSA counts more than 100 associations (sport, music, charity, culture,...). The first promotion counted 300 students. Nowadays, it has more than 4500 engineering students of each 1400 graduate each year. INSA is no more a single school but a group of five schools located in Lyon, Strasbourg, Rennes and Rouen. However, Lyon is not only the oldest, but also the largest.
