The aim of these structures is to bring together skills, human resources and equipment to solve a particular problem.
Shared research structures (SRS) are groups of research units (RU) and/or research teams whose aim is to pool competencies, and possibly human and material resources, in order to address one or more research issues and give them greater visibility and efficiency. SRS are consistent with the scientific policy of the University of Lille.
The University of Lille is involved in the following shared research structures:
Different forms
The concept of SRS covers a number of different bodies or forms: federative research structures (FRS), research federations (RF), CNRS-accredited SRS, scientific interest groups (SIG), research groups (RG) and international research networks. They may be accredited by the university and/or other partner institutions.
Hauts-de-France Mathematical Research Federation
The Hauts-de-France Mathematical Research Federation brings together mathematicians from the Hauts-de-France region. It aims to pool competencies in fundamental and applied mathematics, thus creating a strong research cluster with a high national and international profile. It represents and defends mathematics at regional level and promotes regional scientific activities.
This shared research structure has been accredited by the University of Lille.

Institut Michel Eugène Chevreul Research federation
The Michel-Eugène Chevreul Institute brings together four research units at the University of Lille working in the field of chemistry and materials. Its role is to structure the sector, raise its profile and coordinate joint initiatives at both regional and national levels. The Institut Chevreul has an advanced characterisation platform as well as an engineering technology platform for chemistry and materials, which are open to academic research and partnerships.
This shared research structure has been accredited by the University of Lille.

Transport Terrestre Mobilité (TTM) Research federation
The TTM research federation structures research dedicated to land transport and mobility in the Hauts-de-France region and enhances its visibility.
Thanks to its interdisciplinary approach and cross-fertilisation of scientific competencies, it represents a unique asset in the French landscape, opening up new fields of investigation that will enable us to meet the needs of the economy and society for mobility that is low-carbon, autonomous, inclusive, safe and sustainable.

Lille Mechanical Federation Federative research structure
The purpose of the Lille Mechanical Federation FRS (FED 4282) is to promote multidisciplinary research in the field of mechanics, excluding land transport and civil engineering, on topics covering the mechanics and multi-scale surface morphology, the mechanics of living materials and composites, the dynamics of coupled systems, the modelling of complex flows, and material processes and behaviours.
