Our tips for success
Live your academic journey to the fullest
Université Paris Cité offers its students many opportunities: studying abroad, getting involved in an association, following optional courses (‘UE libres’) to discover other disciplines, etc
Be hardworking and determined
Studying at Université Paris Cité requires autonomy and strong organizational skills. Each student has to do a great deal of individual work every day, even when there are no classes. We recommend that all our students do not neglect the lectures even if there is no attendance control.

Université Paris Cité enables all its students to effectively make use of their free time by learning languages through self-learning, by practicing a sports activity, by becoming a student ambassador, tutor or volunteer, by attending conferences and cultural events offered by the university.
