On the campus, which straddles the towns of Thionville and Yutz, the start of the new school year has already come for IUT students.
The site now offers four departments (commerce; biology; industrial engineering and maintenance; health and safety) but the novelty of this new school year is at the human level. “We must absorb 35% additional registrations”, indicates the director, Antonietta Specogna, which brings the total number to 535 students. A situation which results from the establishment of the university bachelor in 2021 which brings the old training courses from bac + 2 to bac +3. If the craze for these short and professional courses has been confirmed this year (a thousand files have been registered on Parcoursup), the question of the square meters available to accommodate all these small people arises very concretely. For the moment, no extension of premises is envisaged.
In an emergency, the IUT could find an arrangement with its new neighbour: the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul high school in Algrange, which is inaugurating a brand new extension next week for its students in digital design and imagery. medical. Initially planned for 2021, the project was postponed due to covid and then inflation. This new all-wood vessel, with contemporary architecture, will open its doors on September 11 to more than 110 students interested in a bac +3.
