A few college rankings have consistently put UPMC at the first place in France, and it has been positioned as one of the top colleges on the planet. The ARWU (2014) has positioned UPMC as the first in France, sixth in Europe and 35th on the planet furthermore fourth in field of arithmetic, 25th in field of material science, fourteenth in field of normal sciences and 32nd in field of designing, innovation and software engineering.
It has more than 125 labs, a large portion of them in relationship with the Center national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS). Some of its most remarkable foundations and research facilities incorporate the Institut Henri Poincaré, Institut d'astrophysique de Paris, Laboratoire d'informatique de Paris 6 (LIP6), Institut de mathématiques de Jussieu (imparted to University Paris-Diderot) and the Laboratoire Kastler-Brossel (imparted to École Normale Supérieure).
The University's Faculty of Medicine Pierre and Marie Curie is situated in the showing healing facilities Pitié-Salpêtrière and Saint-Antoine (the last itself being the successor to Saint-Antoine-des-Champs Abbey).
UPMC conveys a certificate in material science in English, since September 2013 for Université Paris-Sorbonne Abou Dhabi.
The notable University of Paris (French: Université de Paris) initially showed up in the second 50% of the twelfth century, however was rearranged in 1970 as 13 independent colleges after the understudy dissents of the French May.
Taking after months of contention amongst understudies and powers at the University of Paris at Nanterre, the organization close down that college on 2 May 1968.
Understudies of the Sorbonne dissented the conclusion and the debilitated removal of a few understudies at Nanterre on 3 May 1968. More than 20,000 understudies, educators and supporters walked towards the Sorbonne, still closed by the police, who charged, wielding their stick, when the marchers drew closer. While the group scattered, some started to make blockades out of whatever was close by, while others tossed clearing stones, driving the police to withdraw for a period. The police then reacted with nerve gas and charged the group once more.
Hundreds more understudies were captured. Transactions separated and understudies came back to their grounds after a false report that the legislature had consented to revive them, just to find the police as yet possessing the schools. The understudies now had a close progressive intensity. Another dissent was sorted out on the Rive Gauche by understudies on 10 May. At the point when the mob police again blocked them from intersection the stream, the group again hurled blockades, which the police then assaulted at 2:15 in the morning after arrangements at the end of the day foundered.
The meeting, which created many captures and wounds, kept going until sunrise of the next day.

In 1974, the University of Paris 6 picked prestigious champions when it received the name Université Pierre et Marie Curie, after Pierre and Marie Curie, and following the time when has tried to propagate the investigative legacy of these ancestors.
UPMC is currently the biggest logical and therapeutic complex in France, dynamic in all fields of examination (see "College Rankings").
In 2008 the college joined the affiliation Paris Universitas changing its logo in like manner and including the name of the relationship after its own.
After two years the affiliation broke down and transformed as PRES (pôle de recherche et d'enseignement supérieur) Sorbonne Universités, including the Pantheon-Assas University, the Paris-Sorbonne University, the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle, the INSEAD and the Université Technologique de Compiègne and the Pierre-and-Marie-Curie University; for this event the logo were changed once more.
Blending Universities of Paris 6 and Paris 4
The colleges of Pierre-and-Marie-Curie (Paris 6) and Paris-Sorbonne (Paris 4) declared to make another college including three resources: Sciences and Medicine (at present having a place Paris 6) and human sciences (as of now having a place with Paris 4). This new college will begin first January 2018.
Sorbonne University (cooperation)
Logo of the Sorbonne University (cooperation)
Sorbonne University (French: Sorbonne Universités ) is a cooperation established by Pierre-and-Marie-Curie University (Paris 6) and Paris-Sorbonne University (Paris 4) in June 2010. The two past colleges are immediate inheritors of the Sorbonne (partitioned into 13 independent colleges after the French uproars in 1968). Different individuals incorporate the INSEAD, the University of Technology of Compiègne and the National Museum of Natural History.
Individuals are right now taking a shot at a few activities with a specific end goal to fortify the relations amongst them and conceivably make another worldwide foundation in the following after years. Most acclaimed ventures are the "Sorbonne College" (Collège de la Sorbonne) for four year college education and the "Sorbonne Doctoral College" (Collège doctoral de la Sorbonne) for PhD competitors.
The collusion has gotten €130 million from the French State. Its financial plan was of €680 million starting 2012.
