In schools and universities students have formed a number of apolitical associations of the “Law 1901” type, and known as “Corpos”, “Amicales” or “BDE”.
Their aims are as follows :
- to welcome new students, provide information and arrange meetings,
- to think about the study programme, job prospects, to organise conferences, talks, congresses and trade exhibitions....in other words, linking studies with the outside world or the job market,
- often, to participate in the administration of their faculties and universities,
- to hold cultural events (parties, theatre and concert trips, etc.) as well as sports and humanitarian activities.

You can thus put your free time to good use in the organisation of the different events, not to mention make useful contacts. Don’t hesitate to find out more: these associations are all keen to work with you!
