Exchange Students, professors and ideas..."

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 three
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.
