The Panthéon-Sorbonne University School of Law, or commonly known as Sorbonne Law School, is the law school of the Panthéon-Sorbonne University (Paris-I). It is the successor to the University of Paris Faculty of Law and is located in the 5th arrondissement of Paris, on the Place du Panthéon.

The Panthéon centre in Paris.

Its motto, in Latin, is: "Omnibus sapientia, unicuique excellentia" ("knowledge for all, excellence for each").

It is the best law faculty in France, 6th in Europe and 18th in the world according to the QS Top universities ranking, ahead of the McGill University Faculty of Law or the University of Pennsylvania Law School.[6]

History[edit]

L'École de droit de Paris (Sorbonne Library[7]).

In 1970, the Edgar Faure Act divided the law faculty of the University of Paris into the new universities of Paris-I, Paris-II, Paris-IX, Paris-X, Paris-XII and Paris-XIII.[8]

While the majority of economists in the law faculty (35 out of 41) chose Paris-I Panthéon-Sorbonne, the majority of lawyers (88 out of 108)[9], including privatists, legal historians and a significant number of publicists, had decided to create a specialised university: Paris II Panthéon-Assas. Conversely, their colleagues opted for a multidisciplinary university by joining Paris I.[10]

There is therefore a historical rivalry between the Sorbonne Law School (part of the Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University) and the Law College of Paris (part of the Paris-Panthéon-Assas University).[11]

Departments[edit]

The École de droit de la Sorbonne has four departments, all of which aim to train students in the law:

  • the Bachelor's Department
  • Master of Public Law Department
  • Master of Private Law Department
  • Master of International, European and Comparative Law Department[12]

Campuses[edit]

EDS courses are taught at a number of campuses, known as 'centres':

  • the Panthéon centre, a historic building that welcomes Masters students and houses the management offices
  • the Sorbonne centre, which hosts conferences for EDS students and 3rd year AES undergraduates
  • the Lourcine centre, for 2nd and 3rd year undergraduate students in particular
  • the Cassin centre, for 1st and 2nd year undergraduate students
  • the Pierre-Mendès-France centre, for 1st and 2nd year AES degree students

Research[edit]

Research is carried out by the Sorbonne's École doctorale de droit, the Sorbonne's Institut de recherche juridique, the Sorbonne's Institut de recherche en droit international et européen and the Sorbonne's Institut des sciences juridiques et philosophique.[13]
