Essential document requirements for admission into a Bachelor’s program at Jean Monnet University:
Completed Application Form
You need to fill out the official undergraduate application form, accurately providing your personal details, educational background, and program preferences.
High School Diploma or Equivalent
A certified copy of your secondary school leaving certificate (such as the Baccalauréat or its international equivalent) showing successful completion of 12 years of schooling.
Academic Transcripts
These should reflect your grades for the last two or three academic years of secondary school, especially in subjects relevant to your chosen program.
Proof of Language Proficiency
If the program is in French, you’ll need a certificate like DELF B2 or DALF. For English-taught programs, a valid IELTS or TOEFL score is usually required.
Curriculum Vitae (CV)
A brief yet clear résumé showing your academic history, extracurricular activities, volunteer work, skills, and any relevant experience.
Motivation Letter
A strong, personal statement explaining why you want to join Jean Monnet University, what drives your interest in the chosen field, and what you aim to achieve during and after the program.
Jean Monnet University sustains an innovation achievement through its research ecosystem: more than 60 national and international labs, 450 research professors, 380 doctoral students, six doctoral schools (five co‑accredited with University of Lyon), and over €5 million in contracts. Organized into clusters like Surfaces‑Optics, Health‑Engineering, and Humanities‑Territories, the structure supports cutting-edge work and societal relevance. This institutional innovation underpins individual inventions and establishes UJM as a reliable, high‑impact centre of research excellence
In 2025 UJM received a granted patent for a multilayer optical device with engineered surface cavities. The device includes a textured coating atop a substrate or second layer, forming cavities that modulate electromagnetic transmission or reflection. It enhances spectral performance for sensors, photonic filters, or optical coatings. Developed in partnership with Manutech‑USD and CNRS, the invention reflects Jean Monnet’s commitment to photonics, applied surface engineering, and bridging research to high‑value technology design
In a recently published application (May 1, 2025), UJM co‑invented a subcutaneous protein formulation combining chitosan and polysaccharides with active proteins, intended for therapeutic use in breast or gastric cancer. Packaged as a two‑container kit, it supports controlled release and stability. This formulation bridges biomaterials, oncology, and pharmaceutical engineering. The project highlights UJM’s expanding role in translational research, medical device development, and interdisciplinary bio‑innovation networks
This invention presents a method for fine-tuning focus in holographic imaging instruments. By positioning a known reference object and applying a light diffraction model, the system calculates precise adjustments to align the surface of interest relative to the acquisition plane. This technique boosts image clarity and spatial accuracy. Co-developed with bioMérieux and CNRS, it’s indicative of UJM innovations at the intersection of biotechnology, optics, and computational imaging
This invention features a femtosecond laser-driven device designed for precise cutting of biological tissues—such as corneas or lenses—by creating stacks of focused laser impact points. The apparatus includes an adjustable optical focusing system and a control unit that shifts the focusing plane in three-dimensional space, enabling layered cutting surfaces for surgical precision. It reflects collaborative research with KERANOVA and CNRS and embodies Jean Monnet University’s strength in optics, biomedical engineering, and laser innovation
Engineered for high-voltage electrical support, this composite blends a cycloaliphatic or diglycidyl ether polyepoxide matrix (under 40% by mass), fillers (20–75%), and ionic liquids (0.1–20%). It serves as a robust insulating support in metal-enclosed substations. The material’s smart composition enhances dielectric performance and thermal stability. It emerged from research in partnership with the Supergrid Institute, CNRS, INSA Lyon, and others—demonstrating UJM’s work across materials science and energy infrastructure
