ParisTech School of Bridges

History

The École des Ponts ParisTech Library was created at the end of the 18th century from donations by the School’s first directors or inspectors.

Education

École des Ponts ParisTech provides a very high-level education in general engineering.

The Graduate School, underpinned by the excellence of its 12 research labs, develops  Masters and PhD programs in mechanical and civil engineering, materials sciences, nuclear engineering, mathematics, information technology, environmental sciences, urban planning, transportation, economics, and sociology.

Through its subsidiaries or in its own right, it develops initial education and lifelong learning that are closely connected with different sectors of the economy.

It is therefore a key player in lifelong learning for senior executives in its prime disciplines.

Research

The purpose of the strategy, jointly developed with the laboratories and coordinated by the Research Directorate, is to structure interdisciplinary research by tackling four socio-economic challenges identified as strategic for Research at the School:

  • City and mobility systems: in order to position the School in the dynamics of the sustainable city, through research that combines the sciences of spatial management, engineering, the living world, and society.
  • Management of risks, resources, and milieus: to tackle the challenges of climate, energy, environmental, and financial risks, the School brings the interdisciplinary resources of its laboratories to bear on the whole value chain.
