With a capacity of more than 120 workstations, the Science library is open Monday to Thursday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
As for transport, the number 1 bus takes 30 minutes to go from the center of Poitiers to the Sp2Mi building.
“Passerelle” (or “Gateway”) is a center bringing together Industry, the University and Companies
The “Passerelle” building, located at the Futuroscope Economic Hub, is jointly owned by UIMM (“L’Union des industries et métiers de la métallurgie”[1]), the University of Poitiers and the MEDEF[2]. These three owners wanted to open a center to strengthen relations between the university and firms. This center provides a space for contact and meetings between UP & professionals (the University of Poitiers’ corporate relations department), the Foundation of Poitiers and project leaders.
