Sports Department

The Savoie Mont-Blanc University Sports Service (SUAPS)
offers sports activities to students and staff of the Université Savoie Mont-Blanc.

You can follow the courses for your own personal leisure, or take up sport at academics (earning ECTS credits).

Throughout the year, you'll have the chance to take part in outdoor activities supervised by Suaps teachers (hiking, downhill skiing, via ferrata, climbing, etc.), as well as multi-day courses (kayaking, sailing, tennis, etc.) and sports nights (volleyball, badminton, handball).

The practice of a Sports and Artistic Physical Activity (APSA) at SUAPS aims to develop the student's various dimensions.
At SUAPS, sports activities are part of the academics "qualifying" program, with ECTS/bonus awarded, or academics "personal" program, without ECTS validation.

APSAs are included in students' academics courses in the form of optional ECTS (in most components) or bonus ECTS (IUTs).
The sport option allows students to validate 1 to 2 ECTS, depending on the component, and is presented as follows:
choice of 1 or 2 different APSAs (depending on stream) for 12 weeks.
1 APSA = between 18H and 24H of sports practice for the student
