In 2025, CROUS and ENS de Lyon will demolish and rebuild the Debourg student residence to provide more accommodation and improve the quality of life for its residents.
The current residence will be closed from July 2025.
It is due to reopen at the start of the academic year in 2027.
Located on the Monod Campus, the current residence has 178 beds, divided into flats (from one-bedroom flat to three-bedrooms flat). The new residence is expected to include around 380 flats, representing a 20% increase.
The new building will blend seamlessly into the neighbourhood, enhancing the landscaped qualities.
It will eventually include a gymnasium approved for regional competitions, as well as a range of facilities and services.
For this project, ENS de Lyon is partnering with the CROUS, which is the project manager.
The chosen architect is Atelier VERA.
