Doctoral positions
Application site opening: Provisional date Monday, June 16, 2025
Doctoral students who will be enrolled in their first and second years of thesis work in 2025/2026 may apply for a first year of doctoral research.
Doctoral students who will be enrolled in their third year of doctoral studies in 2025/2026 are not eligible to apply for the first time for a position as a Teaching Assistant (CME) or a Doctoral Assistant (CMD) in Valorization, Information Dissemination-Mediation, or Expertise.
Teaching assignments at Sorbonne University are full-time, lasting two or three years depending on the discipline, and are tacitly renewable annually until the end of the doctoral contract. In this context, doctoral students whose teaching assignment is ongoing should not reapply.
“Other” assignments (scientific dissemination and mediation, promotion, consulting expertise) are assigned annually: candidates wishing to renew their assignment MUST reapply for their position each year.
Four types of assignments are possible; see the complementary activities for details.
