Partners
While talents are individual, success is always collective.
We must therefore multiply collaborations and partnerships to create the conditions for these successes, whether academic, educational or professional, in France and abroad.
CY Alliance
As part of CY Tech, the engineering school of CY Cergy Paris University, our design school is the natural partner of all the schools present in CY Alliance, with which it collaborates in several ways:
-
Creation of double degrees
-
Inter-school projects
-
Cross research programmes
-
Creation of cross courses
We thus stress the fundamentally x-disciplinary nature of a design education, which links actors, issues, knowledge and methods.

BAchelor act
The Bachelor Act is a 3-year degree course launched by CY Cergy Paris Université and ESSEC. Its aim is to train professionals in support and project management for ecological, civic and societal change. It is multidisciplinary, combining human and social sciences, management sciences and scientific understanding. Its teaching approach is experiential, enabling each student to find his or her own way as part of a group.
The base camp is at the Learning Planet Institue, in the heart of Paris.

RESEARCH
From the beginning, CY école de design has established itself as a major player in research in its field.
The school is a member of the prestigious Institut de Recherche et d'Innovation at the Centre Pompidou, created and directed until his death by the philosopher Bernard Stiegler.
It also sits on the editorial board of Sciences du Design, the only French-language peer-reviewed journal in the field, directed by Stéphane Vial, Professor at UQAM (Quebec).
