Student commitment to the army

Within the framework of the ministerial "Ambition Armées jeunesse" plan and the framework partnership agreement signed between the Southern Defense and Security Zone (EMZDS-Marseille) and Aix-Marseille University (AMU), defining an ambitious framework for privileged links between defense and academia, this bonus is particularly aimed at students wishing to :
* a better understanding of the driving forces and challenges of France's defense policy in today's national and international contexts,
* understand the organization and functioning of the military institution, and how the armed forces are used today,
* strengthen their defence culture;

Description:

This bonus is aimed both at students wishing to acquire this defense culture through lectures and unit visits (optional), and at students already serving in the army as reservists ("reservist" bonus).

* The "Defense" bonus consists in attending 10 one-hour lectures (45-minute presentation + 15-minute question period), including an inaugural lecture on geostrategy and geopolitics.

* The "Reservist" bonus involves joining the operational reserve (see terms and conditions at www.reservistes.defense.gouv.fr).

* As an option, a visit to a Ministry of the Armed Forces site will also be offered to volunteers who regularly attend conferences.
