The University Savoie Mont Blanc (French: Université Savoie Mont Blanc, a.k.a. Chambéry University) is a university in the region of Savoy, with one campus in Annecy-le-Vieux and two around Chambéry.
The university was officially founded in 1979 from several colleges founded in the 1960s and 1970s. To avoid a straight choice between the two biggest towns of the Savoie/Haute-Savoie region, the authorities decided to set up a campus in each city for different areas of study. The university has three campuses:
After Paris I, Pantheon-Assas University and Strasbourg III (URS), Savoy has the fourth-highest number of Erasmus exchange students in France. The school of international relations has signed 228 conventions with universities in 82 countries, and the university takes more than 1,000 foreign students per year overall.
