M1 Parisian Research Master in Computer Science (MPRI)
This programme prepares students for a doctorate in computer science theory, and more generally for a research career. It offers an excellent preparation to M2 MPRI.
The year’s objective is to perfect fundamental skills and discover their various applications in Computer Science theory. It culminates in a long research internship.
The main fields covered are: algorithmics; computability and complexity; automata theory; combinatorial and effective algebra; logic, interactive and automatic demonstration; semantics of programming languages; analysis and verification of systems and programmes; cryptology and security.
The programme is taught by researchers in the field and stands at the cutting age of current scientific knowledge. It prepares students optimally for a PhD.
Develop a research activity in fundamental computer science.
The year is divided into three teaching blocks (each 7 weeks), and a research internship abroad (4 months) between april and august.
Academic research, teaching at tertiary level, R&D.
We look for excellent grades in theoretical/mathematical aspects of Computer Science (algorithmics, computability, automata, logics, functional programming, discrete mathematics, graphs etc.). No English-language level certificate is asked for. If your application is selected, you will have an interview during which your ability to do Science in English will be assessed.
