a history rooted in its territory
Since 1973, the creation of the nine training departments and professional degrees has always been carried out in close collaboration with economic and institutional circles:
The Haute-Savoie Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Savoie Mont Blanc University Business Club, Tétras, Outdoor Sports Valley, Formasup, the Haute-Savoie Departmental Council, the Auvergne Rhône Alpes Region, etc.
Over the years, the IUT has grown and opened courses tailored to the needs of the region's professional sectors, leading to the creation of new areas of study.
Always striving to meet the expectations of families and the region, specialized sections were opened in 1985, allowing young people to continue their studies without giving up their careers as high-level athletes. Today, with the introduction of BUTs, there are only a limited number of specialized sections, covering two BUTs.
quality, openness, fulfillment
In addition to the knowledge it imparts to its students through national programs, the Annecy University Institute of Technology (IUT) aims toprovide each student with complex practical skills by increasing opportunities to apply theoretical knowledge through learning and assessment situations in the form of tutorials, practical work, internships, and projects.

the words of the director and chairman of the IUT board
We welcome all types of high school graduates and students with BTS (advanced vocational training certificates), bachelor's degrees, etc., who will join our programs. With this local public university program, our BUT graduates can, in three years, enter the professional world directly or continue their studies. This collaboration takes the form of internships and/or work-study programs and an international outlook.
The relationships we have built with local businesses are key to developing our students' skills, while giving them an introduction to science and research. Our students benefit from the latest technological and pedagogical advances in all areas of training. It is essential to support each student in order to guarantee their personal development and fulfillment with a sense of ethical and social responsibility. History shows us that this is a guarantee of success.
The IUT model is unique and envied by other educational institutions and countries. The IUT works closely with economic players, which is characterized by strong links with businesses.
The BUT is a genuine technological training program with skilled instructors from academia or the business world who are passionate about sharing their knowledge. In fact, most companies understand this: hiring a BUT graduate means hiring someone who is ready to work.
Choosing the Annecy University Institute of Technology means gaining access to a profession and a degree that serves as a springboard to professional life or further studies in France or abroad.
