Teaching research in the making to everyone, facilitating the dissemination of knowledge, promoting the emergence of new disciplines and a multidisciplinary approach to top-level research, and contributing to France's scientific and cultural influence: these are the missions that the Collge de France has fulfilled for nearly five centuries. In a constantly changing world, confronted as we are with an explosion of knowledge, a wealth of information and new communication technologies, and with the need to adapt socially and professionally to them, these missions are more crucial than ever before.

This programme presents lecture series and seminars delivered in Paris by the Collge de France professors. Further details on symposia and lectures delivered throughout the academic year by visiting professors from France and from abroad at the Collge de France, and by Collge de France professors elsewhere in France or abroad, are available on our website.
