Features
Convinced that quality of life on campus is a sine qua non for individual and collective development, Eric Berton, President of amU, pursues a socially engaged policy for the benefit of the student community and university staff. Healthcare access networks, support for students with disabilities, a service for the prevention of sexist and sexual violence, and the signing of the Charter of Commitment for the inclusion of LGBT+ people at work and in Higher Education are all concrete measures promoting diversity and inclusion. "Living well together" also involves a particularly large number of cultural and sporting events. The university has thus obtained the Generation 2024 Label for the quality of its sports policy.
