Description:
Héritière du Gymnase fondé en 1538 par Jean Sturm, théologien enseignant au Collège de France créé en 1530 par François Ier, l'Université Marc Bloch témoigne du destin d'une région singulière et plus particulièrement de celui de Strasbourg, ville ouverte aux influences intellectuelles de l'Europe. Elle a reçu, parmi ses étudiants, Goethe et Büchner, et a compté parmi ses enseignants Jean Calvin, Albert Schweitzer, Fustel de Coulanges ou Marc Bloch, le fondateur de l'Ecole des Annales . Ce pouvoir d'attraction se manifeste aujourd'hui par l'accueil de 35% d'étudiants extérieurs à l'Académie ( sur un total de 15 000) et par celui de plus de 15% d'étudiants étrangers - dont un tiers d'Européens - issus des cinq continents et de plus de 110 pays. L'Institut International d'Etudes Françaises reçoit pour sa part chaque année, y compris dans le cadre de son université d'été, entre 700 et 800 étudiants étrangers désireux d'apprendre la langue française. Ajoutons qu'une histoire alternativement française et allemande a donné à l'université une incontestable spécificité qu'elle tient à préserver et qui signe encore sa singularité.

HOUSING

Translation/ Interpretation, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? It's cheaper than back home, you meet loads of people and it's close to the centre of town
Personal comments:
The accommodation was very cheap but I would have liked a common room for evryone to meet up and get to know each other. I hardly knew anyone on my floor and it was only through a friend of mine who was living in the same building, that I got to know people pn her floor This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
