A MULTI-FIELD ENDEAVOR


Alliance initiates and accompanies new initiatives in the fields of:

Education Cooperation
Building on the existing bilateral actions of cooperation among its members, such as student and faculty exchange programs, joint and dual degrees, the Alliance program endeavors to develop new initiatives.

Research Collaboration
Alliance’s challenge is to develop joint research projects on issues that are relevant to its main thematic orientation. Such initiatives may involve other American and European partner universities on a case-by-case basis.

Policy Outreach with Private Firms and Policy Makers
It is Alliance's constant preoccupation to improve the transatlantic public policy dialogue with key issues of our time. The Alliance Program endeavors to open a space for discussion between private sector executives, public policy-makers and academics.

Alliance builds on the diversity of its partners and on their intrinsic plurality to promote durable cooperation across disciplines, from hard to social sciences.

 

 

Created in the fall 2002, the Alliance Program is a non-profit transatlantic joint-venture between Columbia University and three French prestigious institutions, The École Polytechnique, Sciences Po and the Université of Paris I Panthéon Sorbonne.


Alliance is an innovative program whose aim is to initiate and accompany new initiatives in the fields of education cooperation, research collaboration, and policy outreach. Over the last four years the Alliance’s scope of activities have included the organization of numerous academic conferences both in Paris and in New York, the setting up of international multidisciplinary research teams, and the creation of joint-courses and curricula targeting the students of its founding partners.
