Partnerships with foreign universities

European Academy of Venice (EIUC - European Interuniversities Center)

Montpellier University and its Institute of European Human Rights Law (IDEDH), part of the Law and Political Science Department, are partners of the European InterUniversities Center (EIUC - European Academy of Venice).

Professor Frédéric Sudre, Director ofIDEDH, is "EMA national director" for Montpellier, i.e. head of this program financedby the European Union.

Students selected by the European Academy of Venice to prepare a Master's degree in European and International Protection of Human Rights spend their first semester in Venice and the second semester in one of the 41 partner universities. Each year, between 2 and 3 students from this academy attend courses and prepare their dissertation under the supervision of an IDEDH lecturer.

LABORATOIRE INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIÉ (LIA) - "CONTRACTS, SECURITIES AND INSOLVENCY OF CONSUMERS AND COMPANIES".

As part of the strategic partnership established between the University of Montpellier and the University of Laval (Canada), an agreement formalizes the creation of an Associated International Laboratory (LIA-CSI) designed to develop collaboration between academics from the law faculties of the two establishments. Initiated by Professors Aurore Benadiba and Christophe Albiges, the aim of the agreement is to set up research projects within a framework that facilitates the transfer of knowledge in contract law, securities law, insolvency law and related fields such as property law. These joint research themes are an extension of those already developed within the Laboratoire de droit privé (UR UM207) and the Chaire Prévention et traitement des difficultés des entreprises of Labex Entreprendre.

With its international dimension, this associated international laboratory will be a place where knowledge is created and disseminated between the two establishments around a common scientific program. The aim of the partnership is to promote the exchange of expertise, the organization of scientific events, joint publications, the awarding of grants and the international mobility of students as part of their training (Masters, PhD).
