Angoulême, a bustling creative town
The town of Angoulême is known as the ‘Balcony to Southwestern France’. Located in the Charente Department of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region, this medium-sized town has a population of around 110,000 inhabitants, including in its suburbs.
The quality of life for its inhabitants is very pleasant and tranquil. People appreciate Angoulême’s cultural diversity and dynamism, reasonable housing prices and, not forgetting, mild climate. The town lives to the beat of the many festivals that take place here, including the International Comics Festival, French Language Film Festival, Musiques Métisses: Festival of world music, etc.
The town boasts a very rich offer of cultural activities and installations: the International Centre for Comics and Images, the National Comics Museum, Angoulême Theatre, a concert venue, La Nef, the Conservatory for Music, Dance and Theatre, and the Regional Fund for Contemporary Art.
A wide array of creative talents call Angoulême home. Employees of creative media companies, multimedia artists, comic strip authors, writers’ collectives and students of Magelis Image Campus live and work together here. This mixing means that there is an environment conducive to creativity, exchange, research and innovation.
Cnam-Enjmin is also supported by the Crous (Centre régional des œuvres universitaires et scolaires). It is a regionally-based, yet centralised, administrative body, which ensures students have decent living conditions to help them succeed in their studies. They look after major aspects of student life, including finance (scholarships), health, university restaurants and student accommodation.

Image Campus Student Association
In September 2008, under the guidance of Pôle Image Magelis, students from image-related schools (ATELIER, ÉESI, EMCA, Cnam-Enjmin, CEPE, CREADOC, IUT, LISA, etc.) created a common association for the 1,800 students in Angoulême.
The Image Campus Student Association, known as CIA (Campus Image Angoulême), was born with the goal of encouraging exchanges between students from the various schools in the Pôle Image.
Our students can also get involved in events organised by different clubs of the Image Campus Association, such as choir, theatre, kung fu...
