Paris School of Economics

PSE was born in December 2006, following a careful restructuring of French research in the economic and social sciences. It was one of the first 13 “Fondations de Coopération Scientifiques” (Scientific Research Foundations) of the RTRA programme.

It brings together a community of 140 researchers and around 200 PhD students, and offers teaching in Masters, PhD, Summer School and Executive Education programs at the cutting edge of the discipline.

Scientists are attached to the different research units which make up the Paris School of Economics:

• Paris-Jourdan sciences économiques, which is a mixed research unit of the CNRS, the EHESS, the Ecole des Ponts ParisTech, the ENS, the INRA, the Université Paris-1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.
• The Centre d’économie de la Sorbonne, which is a mixed research unit of the CNRS and Université Paris-1 Panthéon-Sorbonne.
• The Laboratoire d’économie appliquée, a research unit of the INRA (now joined with Paris-Jourdan)
• The Centre Maurice Halbwachs, which is a mixed research unit of the CNRS, the EHESS, and the ENS.
