Pasteur-Paris University International Doctoral Program

Pasteur-Paris University International Doctoral Program offered by the Institut Pasteur prepares students for an exciting and competitive career in scientific research, through the development of a research project, participation to academic courses, and professional development trainings. The requested duration for a PhD in France is three years.

The Pasteur-Paris University International Doctoral Program program from Institut Pasteur has its primary foundations based on scientific research. Students benefit from the highest training in conducting state-of-the-art research by mentorship, active planning and execution, as well as discussion of results with their Ph.D advisors and other leading scientists. A very dense scheduling of lectures and seminars by world renowned scientists, together with congresses and workshops, are also part of the exposure to ideas and data that students will experience on campus.
