Université de Lorraine (UL) is a public institution created after the merge of four universities of the Lorraine region in north-eastern France. Though the University was founded in Lorraine in 1572, the fusion that took place in 2012 created a hub of scientific advancement, economical growth and knowledge transfer.

洛林大学 (UL) 是法国东北部洛林地区的四所大学合并后创建的一所公立机构。尽管该大学于 1572 年在洛林成立，但 2012 年发生的融合创造了一个科学进步、经济增长和知识转移的中心。60,000 students, 6,900 staff members, 43 teaching departments and 60 research centers make the UL one of the largest universities in the country.

60,000 名学生、6,900 名教职员工、43 个教学部门和 60 个研究中心使 UL 成为该国最大的大学之一。Campuses are situated throughout the region, each with their own focus. UL offers curricula in all fields of knowledge. A specific focus is given to cross-talk between fields and competences, in order to help students develop individualized career paths. The Lorraine region has been shaped since the 19th century by the mining and metallurgical industries, which fostered the development of education and research in engineering and technology. During the 20th century, this concept of engineering took on a broader meaning of global engineering, i.e. the ability to design, develop, validate and implement innovative solutions to global challenges, by relying on disciplinary excellence to address the basic scientific questions, and illuminating the connections between scientific domains and current economic and social challenges. UL thus positions itself as amultidisciplinary, technological and entrepreneurial university, able todevelop comprehensive answers to the economic and societal challenges of the 21stcentury.

校区遍布整个地区，每个校区都有自己的重点。UL 提供所有知识领域的课程。特别关注领域和能力之间的串扰，以帮助学生发展个性化的职业道路。 自 19 世纪以来，洛林地区一直受到采矿业和冶金工业的影响，促进了工程和技术教育和研究的发展。在 20 世纪，这一工程学概念具有更广泛的全球工程学含义，即设计、开发、验证和实施应对全球挑战的创新解决方案的能力，依靠卓越的学科来解决基本的科学问题，并阐明科学领域与当前经济和社会挑战之间的联系。因此，UL 将自己定位为一所多学科、技术和创业型大学，能够为 21 世纪的经济和社会挑战制定全面的解决方案。Another specificity is the multilingual aspect of manycurriculums, due to sharing borders with Belgium, Luxembourg and Germany. TheUL has strong ties with universities from those countries and students andfaculty members alike can take advantage of numerous exchange programs. UL alsodevelops a network of privileged, strategic partnerships with a selected numberof universities throughout the world.

另一个特点是许多课程的多语言方面，由于与比利时、卢森堡和德国接壤。UL 与这些国家的大学有着密切的联系，学生和教职员工都可以利用众多的交流项目。UL 还与世界各地选定的许多大学建立了一个特权战略合作伙伴关系网络。
