Research
Sorbonne University's 135 research units bring together around 6,400 academic researchers and partner researchers from the humanities, medicine as well as technological, formal or natural sciences. These researchers work to advance the knowledge, practices and understandings in their field and help tackle current societal challenges in an interdisciplinary manner. Interdisciplinarity also lies at the core of the Sorbonne University Alliance, a coalition of six higher education and research institutions, that consists of nine multidisciplinary research institutes and eleven initiatives. As part of the 4EU+ Alliance, Sorbonne and its European partner universities promote cutting-edge collaborative research through a free movement area of people and knowledge. Research at Sorbonne University is internationally recognized and globally oriented with contributions to multiple international research laboratories. Sorbonne University received more than 80 million Euro in Horizon 2020 funding, with 22 million awarded in 2019 alone, and another 900,000€ in Erasmus+ funding.
