The value-creation of Université de Haute-Alsace’s research is one of its strengths.

The coherence of the ecosystem supports this development.

Strong relationships with competitivity hubs

UHA is a member of 4 competitivity hubs in Alsace, Franche-Comté and Lorraine (Pôle Véhicule du Futur, Fibres-Energivie, Hydréos and Alsace Biovalley) with which it maintains very close ties, particularly in respect of the relationship between the participating enterprises a
