Marcland, the health hub
of Limoges
To the south of Limoges, the Marcland campus brings together the University of Limoges' health schools: the Medical School, the School of Pharmacy and the School of Dentistry, right next to the CHU Dupuytren teaching hospital. The area also hosts, nearby, the IFSI (nursing) and the ILFOMER (physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy).
It is the campus of long days and frequent placements: living close to the CHU and the lecture halls changes everything. The E-Magine residence, in Isle, is the closest — but it is regularly full. Begip then directs you to its two La Borie residences (University Meissonier and University Dutreix), which reach the CHU by bus or bike, with studios available right away.
