Nancy 2 University (Université Nancy 2) was a French university located in Nancy, France. It was a member of the Nancy-Université federation, a group of the three higher education institutions in Nancy.[1] It merged with Nancy-I, Paul Verlaine University – Metz, and the INPL forming the University of Lorraine. The merger process started in 2009 with the creation of a "pôles de recherche et d'enseignement supérieur" or PRES and was completed 1 January 2012.

## Teaching

[edit]

Nancy 2 provided teaching for 22 Bachelor's degrees and 32 Master's degrees, and approximately 8,000 degrees were attained in 2004/05.[2]

There were two semesters, each semester followed by an exam period, and another exam period in June for resit examinations. Semesters lasted 12 weeks each. During the university year, public holidays were observed as well as longer holidays (either one or two weeks) such as All Saint's Day, Christmas, Easter and a "February holiday", roughly equivalent to spring break.[3]
