The Sorbonne Nouvelle University (French: Université Sorbonne Nouvelle, also known as Université Sorbonne Nouvelle – Paris 3, Paris 3, Sorbonne Nouvelle and the Sorbonne) is a public liberal arts and humanities universityinParis, France. It is one of the inheritors of the historic University of Paris,[1] which was completely overhauled and restructured in 1970.
The historic University of Paris first appeared in the second half of the 12th century, but was reorganised in 1970 as 13 autonomous universities after the student protests of the French May. Sorbonne Nouvelle, or "Paris III", is one of the inheritors of University of Paris faculty of humanities ("arts et lettres").[1]
The Sorbonne Nouvelle has sites at various locations in Paris. The main university centres are:
Central Sorbonne Building — central administration offices, Literature
Nation – the main teaching site, named after the arrondissement (since 2022)
Maison de la Recherche – Located rue des Irlandais in the Latin Quarter, it is the university's main research centre and facility.
Bibliothèque Sainte Barbe and Bibliothèque Sainte Geneviève – Located near the Pantheon in the Latin Quarter, those two research libraries are owned and managed by Sorbonne Nouvelle University.
The university also occupied several other locations until 2022:
Bièvre — houses teaching and research facilities for language study and the main staff and student refectories
Rue Saint-Jacques — French as a Foreign Language
Rue des Bernardins — The Linguistics and Phonetics department
Rue de l'École-de-Médecine — English Studies
Rue Saint-Guillaume — Latin American Studies
Place du Maréchal-de-Lattre-de-Tassigny — Houses the E.S.I.T (School of Interpreting and Translation)
Asnières – located outside of Paris, where the German Studies department, now closed, was housed.[2]
In 2022, the Censier Campus, located rue Censier, was abandoned.
The Sorbonne Nouvelle has one central and five specialised libraries (Foreign language and culture and French literature). It is also connected to the Sainte-Geneviève Library, the Central Sorbonne Library, the Inter-University Library for Oriental Languages and the Sainte-Barbe Library.
The Presses Sorbonne Nouvelle publishes research carried out by the university.[3]
The CROUS de Paris (Centre régional des œuvres universitaires et scolaires) is the organisation responsible for both student accommodation and refectories in Paris. It runs various student halls of residence and student restaurants both in central Paris and in its outskirts.
Sorbonne Nouvelle University tried to become a member of Sorbonne Paris Cité Alliance, which groups together several Parisian universities. Due to opposition from students and professors, the project did not succeed.
