Savoie Mont Blanc University: an asset for the region

The University of Savoie Mont Blanc and its constituent institutions are an asset to the region and a source of human and intellectual resources: 15,000 students, 1,400 staff members dedicated to undergraduate and graduate education and research, and more than 1,700 professional instructors in university programs.

Working closely with socio-economic stakeholders in Savoie and Haute-Savoie—whom it listens to and supports—the USMB, its constituent units, and its partners have created the “Business Club,” which fosters connections between institutions, businesses, students, and faculty members. The club plays a key role in facilitating career placement in the region and promoting careers of the future. The“USMB Foundation,”established in early 2017, complements this network by building a bridge between the university’s researchers and businesses and local governments in the two Savoie regions, to support environmental, societal, and organizational innovation through knowledge, creativity, and research.
