Institute in Paris

Open days and events

Meet us - either in Paris, UK or online - and discover what it is like to study and live in the heart of Paris by attending one of our taster courses, open days, or Q&As.

Undergraduate events

We hold several online and in-person events throughout the year. From taster courses, to online Q&As and UCAS Exhibitions, you will have the opportunity to meet our staff and students so you can have a feel for what it’s like to study at the University of London Institute in Paris. 

Read on for an overview of our events, or scroll down to the "Upcoming and Past Undergraduate Events" section, where you can find recordings of past events and sign up for upcoming ones.

Online events 

Whether you’ve already applied to the University of London Institute in Paris or not, you can join us for any of our online open days, taster courses and Q&As. Both academic and administrative staff, as well as students, are online to answer any questions you may have. Our online events usually start with a 30-minute presentation followed by a 20-minute online Q&A via chat. You will need to register ahead of time to access our platform and receive reminders to make sure you don’t miss the chance to meet us.  

In-person events 

If you prefer to meet us in person, we usually attend the UCAS Exhibitions in London (usually held in March), as well as hold a taster course in London at Senate House in May/June. There as well, you will have the chance to meet our academic staff and student ambassadors and ask any questions you may have about our BA in French Studies and/or International Politics programmes, or simply what it is like to study and live in Paris.

Journée de Rencontres/Applicant Open Day 

If you have applied to the University of London Institute in Paris through UCAS, don’t miss the chance to attend our Journée de Rencontres (JdR) typically held in March in Paris at our premises. This event offers a wonderful opportunity to meet current students, learn more about our degree programmes and attend presentations by our lecturers. Parents or guests are also welcome. Once you've applied and received an offer, you will receive an email invitation to join us.
