Institutes and initiatives programs
Most of the doctoral projects proposed by Sorbonne University’s Institutes and Initiatives programs are now online.

Interview with a jury
The institutes and initiatives compose a jury whose members are chosen for their scientific expertise according to the projects selected. Representatives of the doctoral schools concerned are invited. The candidate is evaluated on the quality of their academic background and research skills; the suitability of their profile for the project; their ability to explain the project being defended and to answer the jury's questions; and the feasibility of the project being defended within the time allocated for completion of the thesis.
