Exclusive Services for You
The Lorraine Université d’Excellence (LUE) project is based on a research and training strategy for the Lorraine site that identifies scientific fields shared by LUE’s key partners (UL, CNRS, INRA, INRIA, INSERM, CHU, AgroParitech et GeorgiaTech Europe), in order to develop the site’s international leadership and systems engineering focusing on some of today’s major economic and societal challenges.
GUEST Postdocs
AND RESEARCHERS
In this context, the Welcome@Lorraine program provides international researchers hosted by LUE’s local partners with “VIP” assistance for stays of at least 3 months.
Discover the exclusive services we provide for postdoctoral researchers and visiting scholars whose stay exceeds 3 months:
- Provision of Temporary Accommodation (proportional to the total duration of the stay, up to one month) for you, your spouse, and your minor child(ren).
- Individual assistance upon arrival and advice on finding accommodation, welcome pack (goodies, 10-journey transport pass, etc.) upon request.
- Aid with arrival formalities if necessary: bank, housing insurance and possibility of assistance with the various administrative procedures.
- Advice on and assistance with putting your children in school.
- Assistance with CAF (Family Allowances Fund) procedures if necessary.
- Coverage of French classes for the researcher and their spouse is provided in the context of specific programs (PAUSE and prof@Lorraine).
Applications must be sent:
- at least 1 month before the effective arrival date of the researcher, their spouse and children
- by the the host research or training unit exclusively to lue-welcome-lorraine@univ-lorraine.fr
Important!
- In order to ensure top-quality service, no direct application or application at too short notice can be taken into consideration as such assistance must form part of a well-defined and prepared collaboration project.
- If you’re a guest researcher who is eligible for this program, contact the host laboratory or training component directly so that it can make the request on your behalf.
Eligibility requirements: postdocs and researchers officially invited by a training component or laboratory, or employed by LUE’s local partners, for more than 3 months.
