UFR de Sciences Économiques et de Gestion Lyon 2

What UFR de Sciences Économiques et de Gestion Lyon 2 does

UFR de Sciences Économiques et de Gestion (UFR SEG) is a public teaching and research unit (Unité de Formation et de Recherche) within Université Lumière Lyon 2, specializing in economics and management education across the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. It serves approximately 8,000+ students through Licence, Licence Professionnelle (including apprenticeship-format banking programs), Master (MBFA, ESS, RISE, Transport, Management specializations), Diplôme Universitaire, and continuing education tracks, alongside 50+ program mentions and four CNRS-affiliated research laboratories (COACTIS, GATE, LAET, TRIANGLE). Operations span three Lyon campuses — the administrative headquarters at 4 bis rue de l'université, the main teaching site at Campus Berges du Rhône, and the secondary Campus Porte des Alpes — with a small dedicated pedagogical technology footprint anchored by the OMB+ online mathematics support platform used in Licence 1.

Revenue is generated through three channels: French Ministry of Higher Education and Research block funding (the dominant stream, tied to enrollment and research output), nationally set student registration fees plus the Contribution Vie Étudiante et de Campus (CVEC), and continuing-education and apprenticeship contract revenue delivered through partnerships with CFA training centers (Cap Compétences Crédit Mutuel, Formaposte La Poste, ESBANQUE). Employer partnerships with nine major French banking groups (CIC, Crédit Mutuel, BNP Paribas, LCL, Crédit Agricole, Caisse d'Epargne Rhône Alpes, Banque Populaire, Société Générale, La Banque Postale) underwrite alternating training pathways, while co-accreditation agreements with ENTPE, École Centrale de Lyon, Mines Saint-Étienne, and Université Lyon 3 enable interdisciplinary Master delivery. International activity is anchored by a double-degree with the Université Royale de Droit et des Sciences Économiques in Cambodia, and student recruitment is conducted through open days, the Mon Master and eCandidat national platforms, the Cordées de la Réussite secondary-school outreach program, and LinkedIn/YouTube channels.
