About Université de Bordeaux
Université de Bordeaux is one of France's leading, historic, and most prestigious multidisciplinary public research universities, tracing its origins to 1441 when Pope Eugene IV issued a papal bull founding the institution. In 2014, the university completed a landmark unification merging three major specialized universities—Bordeaux 1 (Science and Technology), Université Bordeaux Segalen (Medicine, Health, and Human Sciences), and Montesquieu Bordeaux IV (Law, Political Science, Economics, and Management)—into a modern collegiate powerhouse. As one of the first French institutions to be awarded the coveted Initiative of Excellence (IdEx) label by the French government, Université de Bordeaux educates over 54,000 students, including more than 7,200 international scholars across five main collegiate faculties: Law, Political Science, Economics & Management; Health Sciences; Human Sciences; Science & Technology; and the world-renowned Institute of Vine & Wine Science (ISVV). Renowned as an international capital for neuroscience (Bordeaux Neurocampus), materials science, photonics, oncology, public health data science, and viticulture, the university maintains top-tier partnerships with CNRS, Inserm, INRAE, Inria, and CEA. Université de Bordeaux is also a founding member of the ENLIGHT European University Alliance alongside Ghent, Groningen, Uppsala, and the Basque Country, offering students exceptional educational pathways and vibrant campus life throughout the UNESCO World Heritage city of Bordeaux.
