Characteristics
To the East of the conurbation, Vaulx-en-Velin is building up high-level expertise in the field of construction, urban planning and architecture, thanks to the influence of two business schools: the Ecole Nationale des Travaux Publics de l'Etat (ENTPE - civil engineering school) and the Ecole d'Architecture de Lyon (Lyon architect school).
Various structures supporting this same theme have sprung up around these players: the Espace Ville and the Pôle de Compétences en Urbanisme (urban planning skills center).
Alongside this, and in view of the characteristics of the Vaulx-en-Velin site, skills in the field of social economics and corporate responsibility are also to be highlighted.
