Presentation
Université de tous les savoirs, l’Université de Lorraine promeut la mutualisation des savoirs. Des sciences fondamentales aux sciences humaines, elle crée des éco-systèmes trans-disciplinaires au service de l’innovation, qui accélèrent le passage de la connaissance aux applications.
L’Université de Lorraine se veut résolument engagée. Elle s’est construite autour de valeurs fortes, qu’elle a tenu à afficher dans sa Charte des valeurs. Elle accompagne ainsi les évolutions sociétales, que ce soit dans les domaines de l’égalité et de la diversité, ou de la transition écologique, en lien avec les 17 objectifs de développement durable (ODD) définis par les Nations Unies.
L’ensemble de la communauté universitaire, étudiants et personnels, au sein des composantes et direction, ou à titre personnel, s’engage au quotidien pour l’environnement, la lutte contre les discriminations, la qualité de vie sur les campus, le mieux vivre ensemble et la construction d’une université responsable et inclusive.
