University of Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne, Public research university in Latin Quarter, France
The University of Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne occupies twenty-five buildings spread throughout the city, offering programs in economics, law, humanities, and political science. The Pierre Mendès-France Centre and the Maison des Sciences Économiques provide spaces for research and teaching.
The institution emerged in 1971 after the division of the medieval University of Paris and inherited part of the Sorbonne's legacy. The new campus linked the humanities tradition with economics and legal studies.
The university maintains three primary academic divisions: Economics and Management, Human Sciences, and Legal and Political Sciences, forming a central hub of French academia.
Visitors will find facilities spread across several locations, with main buildings in the Latin Quarter and near the Panthéon. Most lecture halls and research spaces are open during daytime outside exam periods.
The library holds three million volumes and serves several Paris universities as a shared resource. Students and researchers use the extensive collections daily for their work.
