WELCOME TO THE CLASS OF 2021!

The new class of PhD students, post-doctoral fellows and engineers has joined the IAP in the fall of 2021.

During the welcome meeting that was held on November 25th 2021, the organization of the institute was presented to the new class, as well as the information they might need and the people they may contact during their stay in the laboratory.

The diversity of the subjects that will be addressed by these young researchers and engineers is large. Representative of this fact, their work at the IAP is funded by many sources: ministerial scholarships (including specific contracts for students from the Ecole Normale Supérieure), scholarships from Sorbonne Université, a scholarchip from the Office National d'Etudes et de Recherches Aérospatiales (ONERA), scholarships from the Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC), from the “PhD Joint Programmes” of the International Research Center (IRC) of the CNRS and the University of Arizona, and from the Australian Research Council (ARC), scholarships and fellowships from the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR) and from the European Research Council (ERC), a fellowship from the Inria Nancy-Grand Est, a fellowship from the DIM ACAV+ of the Île-de-France region, fellowships from the Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales (CNES) (for more information, see Partnerships). The entire staff of the IAP wishes them a fruitful stay, and many rich scientific and technical exchanges.

The laboratory also congratulates the new doctors, who recently left the Institute at the end of their theses.
