Institut Polytechnique de Paris with its STeP2 project is one of the winner of the call for projects "ExcellenceS in all its forms" (second wave) launched by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research.

The Institut Polytechnique de Paris (IP Paris) is developing an ambitious innovation policy in order to increase its societal impact. In this context, IP Paris has launched its third call for projects to detect and support innovative projects from its laboratories.

On October 8 and 9, 2021, 200 researchers and doctoral students from the Institut Polytechnique de Paris welcomed more than 1,000 middle and high school students, families and visitors to discover science through fun and creative activities.

Involving researchers from the interdisciplinary centre Energy4Climate (E4C) on climate studies and economics, the first report "Climate and Environmental Change in the Mediterranean Basin - Current situation and risks for the future" (MAR1) has just been published. It is the result of four years of work by the independent network of Mediterranean experts on climate and environmental change MedECC, which brings together 190 researchers from 25 countries.

The virtual awards ceremony for the first edition of the E4C Student Challenge highlighted the projects of more than a hundred students from 10 different institutions, committed to the energy transition of metropolises.
