Student Engagement
Reminder of Academic Regulations
…“In accordance with the University of Montpellier’s ‘Charter for Engaged Students,’ the STAPS Department recognizes and values the skills of students who are actively involved in civic engagement, particularly when this engagement aligns with the values we consider essential: humanitarian work, health, educational initiatives, solidarity, student life, university sports, etc.”
This commitment must be substantial—that is, it must involve the planning, management, and oversight of collective responsibilities for a workload exceeding 100 hours. It can take place in associations—whether university-based or non-university-based—or within organizations (civic service, fire departments, etc.). It can also involve university life (tutoring, advising, etc.)“ …
