Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne.
Newest building on the campus, fancy architecture with slopes and holes.
Location is probably École-Militaire St.-Cyr (St.-Cyr l'Ecole, southwestern edge of Versailles). First year students of the École Polytechnique were commissioned military reserve officers and they must have spent the year at St.-Cyr (their own school had no open fields) learning military drill, combat, engineering, etc. As far as I know, they still do. I'm assuming this and other photos of exercises are at St.-Cyr.
Earlier I thought this location was the Champ de Manoeuvres at Issy (now the heliport of Issy-les-Moulineaux), just southwest of Paris. It became the army's main parade ground after the Champ de Mars was given over to the Expositions of 1889 and 1900, and would be a logical place to hold exercises. But the rolling hills are more like the terrain around St.-Cyr l'Ecole, which is an even more logical place to hold military exercises, as they do now.
This photo could have been taken during the Centenary, in which case Étienne (X 1894) might appear in some of these pictures. At graduation exercises, parents might be taking pictures. There are civilians in the pontoon bridge photo and in the stereo photos in this set. If these are first-year cadet exercises, it's probably 1892. If all the photos in the set were of the same exercises, the presence of a modern-style bicycle rules out 1886 or 1888.
Another possibility is the Grandes Manoeuvres of mid-September 1894, around Paris, as mentioned in the 16 and 23 September issues of Le Petit Parisien.

Extrait de Wikipedia
The Université de Montréal[7] (UdeM; French pronunciation: [ynivɛʁsite də mɔ̃ʁeal]; translates to University of Montreal)[8][note 1] is a French-language public research university in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The university's main campus is located on the northern slope of Mount Royal in the neighbourhoods of Outremont and Côte-des-Neiges. The institution comprises thirteen faculties, more than sixty departments and two[10] affiliated schools: the Polytechnique Montréal (School of Engineering; formerly the École Polytechnique de Montréal) and HEC Montréal (School of Business). It offers more than 650 undergraduate programmes and graduate programmes, including 71 doctoral programmes.
The university was founded as a satellite campus of the Université Laval in 1878. It became an independent institution after it was issued a papal charter in 1919 and a provincial charter in 1920. Université de Montréal moved from Montreal's Quartier Latin to its present location at Mount Royal in 1942. It was made a secular institution with the passing of another provincial charter in 1967.
The school is co-educational, and has 34,335 undergraduate and 11,925 post-graduate students (excluding affiliated schools). Alumni and former students reside across Canada and around the world, with notable alumni serving as government officials, academics, and business leaders.
