The University Institutes of Technology or IUT (French : Instituts Universitaires de Technologie) are parts of the university system in France. The IUT were created in 1966. There are 108 IUTs which are attached to 80 universities including the ones in the French Overseas Territories and Departments. It is important to note that, contrary to what their name suggests, these IUTs are not engineering schools and are not authorised by the French State to award an engineering degree or a Bachelor of technology.

The IUTs allow the preparation of a three-year career-focused vocational undergraduate diploma called Bachelor universitaire de technologie. They are similar to the BTEC Higher Nationals Diploma. After the three-year IUT diploma, students are expected to enter the job market. Some choose to continue their studies on a post-graduate course at university. [1]

Until 2020, the IUTs allowed the preparation of a two-year undergraduate technical diploma called Diplôme universitaire de technologie or DUT. After finishing their DUT, students had the option to work, do a one-year professional degree called Licence Professionnelle (a course also offered by IUTs), or further their studies in a university.

A bachelor's degree or baccalaureate is an undergraduate degree awarded by colleges and universities upon completion of a course of study lasting three to six years. The two most common bachelor's degrees are the Bachelor of Arts (BA) and the Bachelor of Science. In some institutions and educational systems, certain bachelor's degrees can only be taken as graduate or postgraduate educations after a first degree has been completed, although more commonly the successful completion of a bachelor's degree is a prerequisite for further courses such as a master's or a doctorate.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Undergraduate education</span> Academic programs up to the level of a bachelors degree

Undergraduate education is education conducted after secondary education and before postgraduate education, usually in a college or university. It typically includes all postsecondary programs up to the level of a bachelor's degree. For example, in the United States, a student pursuing an associate or bachelor's degree is known as an undergraduate student while a student pursuing a master's or doctoral degree is a graduate student. Upon completion of courses and other requirements of an undergraduate program, the student would earn the corresponding degree. In some other educational systems, undergraduate education is postsecondary education up to and including the level of a master's degree; this is the case for some science courses in Britain and some medicine courses in Europe.

An associate degree or associate's degree is an undergraduate degree awarded after a course of post-secondary study lasting two to three years. It is a level of academic qualification above a high school diploma and below a bachelor's degree.

An institute of technology is an institution of tertiary education that specializes in engineering, technology, applied science, and natural sciences.
