The ICFP Master is a top-level program designed specifically for the best French and international students.
By choosing the École normale supérieure (ENS), students are assured of benefiting from the prestigious teaching that has made the ENS's reputation since its creation in 1794.
PSL’s quantum engineering programme is a 2-year program that provides cutting-edge training. It is spread over two years and 120 ECTS, requesting full-time studies.
Quantum technologies are a strategic global topic for academia and industry. These disruptive technologies have the potential to revolutionise the design and implementation of information and communication sciences and technologies. France is investing nearly €2 billion in this field over the next four years.
A new interdisciplinary training programme in quantum technologies has been launched by PSL University in September 2022. It results from an unprecedented synergy between some of its founding schools, namely: Ecole normale supérieure, ESPCI Paris, Mines Paris, École nationale supérieure de Chimie de Paris - PSL and the Observatoire de Paris, and it is part of PSL’s graduate programme in physics.
The academic year is divided into two semesters.
The second year is organized into four tracks: Condensed matter physics, Soft matter and biological physics, Quantum physics: From the foundations to quantum technologies, and Theoretical physics.
The second year is organized as follows:
Note: The students will have to choose between different optical courses in the first semester
Students wishing to specialize in astronomy and astrophysics can enroll in the second year of the "Astronomy, Astrophysics and Space Engineering" Master's program, jointly organized by 5 institutions in the Paris region: Observatoire de Paris and Ecole Normale Supérieure de Paris (PSL), Sorbonne University, Université de Paris Cité, and Université Paris-Saclay. The Master proposes two tracks : "Astrophysique" et "Dynamique des systèmes gravitationnels", et forme une quarantaine d’étudiants par an.
The Doctoral School offers physics and mathematics students training in the broad interdisciplinary field of Astronomy and Astrophysics through all of its methods of observation, measurement and computation. The subject area continues to grow every year, covering planets to cosmology, using a wide variety of advanced tools preparing for next generation instruments.
