Alliance Program: thirteen doctoral students and two faculty members selected

Following the calls for applications launched in October 2025 as part of the Alliance Program, two faculty members and thirteen doctoral students from Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University have been selected to benefit from one of the opportunities offered by this international network.

A long‑term transatlantic academic partnership

For almost 25 years, the Alliance Program has brought together Columbia University (United States) and three leading French higher education and research institutions (Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University, École Polytechnique and Sciences Po) around a shared objective: strengthening transatlantic cooperation through a wide range of mobility initiatives and research activities.

Each year, several calls for applications are offered to faculty members and doctoral students from the partner institutions of the Alliance Program. These opportunities aim to support joint or trilateral projects, visiting professorships, and doctoral mobility grants.
