Community life
Community and Cultural
There is a very active community life at SupBiotech. Every year a new association flourishes at the school. Each association is given support, advice and project backing. Students enjoy a genuine source of personal development. They develop qualities essential in their professional lives: leadership, the ability to better themselves and a sense of responsibility.
Associations : the center of student life
Community life is a fundamental part of the educational project at the school. Being part of an association is a rewarding experience, something to include in your CV and highlight in job interviews. Life on campus is created in this way, bringing the different years together.
The associations at SupBiotech are involved in various areas (professional life, sport, charity, leisure and culture, music…), and the central association is the student office whose main objective is to shape student life with the organisation of regular events.
It is the hub of student life and students elect a new team every year.
