About Institut Catholique de Lille

Founded 150 years ago by committed Christian entrepreneurs, the Catholic Institute of Lille is the historical heart and founding member of the Lille University and Multidisciplinary Federation, commonly known as the Catholic University of Lille since 1875. Its positioning is structured around two main areas of activity: - the Higher Education and Research perimeter, labeled EESPIG - the health and social sector with the 3 hospitals of the ICL Hospital Group (GHICL) which is qualified as ESPIC; the Centre Féron-Vrau Association, a medico-social complex consisting of 5 EHPADs; and the Etienne Leclercq Institute (DITEP). In the Higher Education and Research perimeter, the Catholic Institute of Lille is composed of 12 institutions and located on 5 campuses between the Lille metropolis and Issy-les-Moulineaux. For our 950 employees, work takes on a new dimension: that of an adventure where each member of our team contributes to shaping the future of education and society.
