Higher education and regional research is broken down into two sites within the meaning of the ESR law of 2013. The sites are based on academic perimeters with an overall weight of 80% on the Lille academy and 20% for the academy from Amiens. Each site is structured around a university and scientific group:- la ComUE Lille Nord de France :
La Comue is made up today of 9 founding members: the 4 public universities (University of Artois, University of Lille, University of the Coast of Opale and Poytechnique University of Hauts-de-France), the University Federation and multidisciplinary in Lille, 2 engineering schools (Centrale Lille and IMT Lille-Douai) and two research organizations (CNRS and INRIA).
