Three Americans at Verdun: Keeping the Memory of WWI Alive with Mémorial de Verdun
In the American memory of WWI, the decisive moment is April 1917, marking the date the United States officially entered the war. But the story
For more than two centuries, École des Mines de Paris has been a driving force in French innovation, shaping the engineers and leaders who advance technological and societal progress across industries, from manufacturing and services to healthcare, in service of a more sustainable world.
Fondation Mines Paris, the independent foundation supporting École des Mines de Paris, is dedicated to championing and amplifying that mission. By mobilizing philanthropic support, the Foundation funds academic excellence, fosters pedagogical innovation, and invests in the transformation of the campus experience, ensuring that École des Mines de Paris continues to thrive as a world-class institution for generations to come.
Fondation Mines Paris translates its mission into concrete support for students and the institution through three core areas of action:
Living Stipends for Students in Need
Guided by the belief that financial hardship should never stand between a talented student and their education, the Foundation awards living stipends to students whose personal circumstances would otherwise compromise their ability to fully engage with their studies.
International Mobility Grants
An international experience is a graduation requirement for all engineering students at École des Mines de Paris. For those who need it, the Foundation provides mobility grants to ensure that financial constraints are never a barrier to meeting that milestone.
Campus Heritage and Modernization
The Paris campus is a living landmark, shaped by more than 200 generations of engineers. The Foundation invests in its thoughtful evolution, preserving its historic character while modernizing its spaces to meet the needs of today’s students and the demands of contemporary education.
