With 800 years of
history and 50 years of excellence, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne is
today the largest university of humanities and social sciences in France. Its
motto is: Omnibus sapientia, unicuique
excellentia - Knowledge for all, excellence for everyone. Today more than
45,000 students are enrolled in the university’s 10 teaching and research departments
and 4 institutes.
THREE MAIN AREAS OF
EDUCATION AND RESEARCH
Arts and Humanities
This field includes the departments of history,
geography, philosophy, art history and archaeology, and arts. Some of its
courses are unique and exclusive in France (e.g. aesthetics and restoration of
works of art). The research centres associated with these departments have an
international audience, and some of its preparatory courses are among the most
renowned in France.
Economics and
Management
Economics, management, and mathematics and
computer science form this second field. It is one of the largest French
university centres of excellence, both in terms of the number of theses
defended in the various disciplines offered and in terms of the numerous
international partnerships established in the past few years.
Law and Political
Science
This area brings together the departments of
law (public law, private law, international, European and comparative law),
political science, labour and social studies (economic and social administration
and social law). The Sorbonne Law School gathers the university’s main courses
and research teams in the field of law.
A RESEARCH-ORIENTED
UNIVERSITY
Research at Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne
follows a centuries-old tradition of excellence while constantly evolving in
its subjects and methods. The university’s 1,460 teachers/researchers are
divided into 37 research teams, 24 of which are joint research units with the
CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique) and/or the IRD (Institut de
Recherche pour le Développement). Over 250 PhD theses and Habilitations are
defended every year in the university’s 10 doctoral schools and more than 200
conferences and symposiums are organised each year. Founded more than 50 years
ago, the Éditions de la Sorbonne form a huge asset which includes nearly 1,000
titles in its catalogue, with 60 books and journals published each year.
RESSOURCES AND PARTNERSHIPS
Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne occupies
some of Paris’s greatest architectural treasures. Based for centuries on a
large campus in the Latin Quarter of Paris, the university has been expanding
since the 1970s by building new facilities in other parts of the capital and
its region. Today, the university has over 20 locations in the Île-de-France
region. Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne also maintains one of France’s largest
library systems. The crown jewel is the Sorbonne Interuniversity Library, which
contains nearly two million printed volumes.
Faithful to its international dimension and in
line with today’s context, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne has developed a
dense network of partnerships with key universities in 75 countries, covering
the five continents. This strong international presence makes it possible for
Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne to offer provision for the international
joint supervision of PhDs, Erasmus Mundus programmes, joint degree programmes,
and many delocalised degrees within foreign partner universities. Université
Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne is also a founding member of the European university
alliance Una Europa, along with ten other institutions. The university is
ranked in a variety of world university rankings, reflecting its position as a
leading global institution in research and education, especially in the field
of humanities and social sciences.
Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne’s clear policy of
engagement in public and economic life has resulted in an equally rich network
of relations with public and private sector actors. The Panthéon-Sorbonne
Foundation has partnered with the economic sectors in order to develop and
support innovative projects in the field of higher education and research,
based on four pillars: students, international, research and training, and
heritage.
