Senter for universitets- og høgskolesamarbeid med Frankrike, SUHF, ble opprettet i 1988 og har Frankrike som spesialfelt. SUHF ble i løpet av 2004 gradvis overført fra Oslo til Bergen for å bli en del av SIU. Fra 1. januar 2005 tilbyr SUHF alle sine tjenester i Bergen. En avtale om økonomisk, industrielt og vitenskapelig samarbeid mellom Norge og Frankrike, den såkalte Troll-avtalen, ble inngått i desember 1986. Troll-avtalen har vært viktig for de bilaterale forbindelsene mellom de to landene, og var uten tvil av avgjørende betydning for opprettelsen av SUHF og de to studieprogrammene for økonomiske og teknologiske fag i Toulouse.

SUHF er finansiert av Utdannings- og forskningsdepartementet, UFD, og yter service til alle utdanningsinstitusjoner og enkeltpersoner i Norge som har spørsmål om studier i Frankrike, som for eksempel:

Informasjon om tilbud ved Fransk-norsk senter i Caen, oversetterutdanning i Paris og språkkurs.

Informasjon om spesialprogram i økonomi i Toulouse og om masterstudier ved velrenommerte franske handelshøgskoler.

Informasjon om svilingeniørstudier i Toulouse.

Informasjon om doktorgradsopphold i Frankrike.

Informasjon om Frankrikestudier på egen hånd.
