Inspired by two visionaries, Paul Bocuse and Gérard Pélisson, Institut Lyfe (formerly Institut Paul Bocuse) was born from passion: a passion for our professions and a passion for conveying knowledge to future generations. We pass on our craft with the same objective of elegantly transmitting exceptional know-how and the bold spirit needed to conquer numerous professional horizons, providing the opportunity – for everyone – to train in rich, human and exciting professions.

Since 1990, we have been custodians of French know-how, cultural heritage and the art of hospitality at their highest levels of excellence, nourished by a unique ecosystem within the Grandes Ecoles higher education panorama.

The only French post-baccalaureate school with an international dimension to welcome 75 nationalities on its campuses, Institut Lyfe offers its 1,200 students an unparalleled multicultural and experiential ecosystem on a campus encompassing 17,000 m2 of modern, fully equipped infrastructure, set within 2 castles surrounded by a green oasis.
