IDIL Graduate Program at SFRI’ Day: A Highlight for Graduate Programs in France

In March 2025, a delegation from the University of Montpellier representing the IDIL program participated in SFRI’ Day, held at the University of Paris-Saclay.

This event brought together the 19 universities selected through the “SFRI” (Structuring Education through Research i Research s of Excellence) call for proposals, organized by the National Research Agency (ANR) and supported by the France 2030 program. It was a pivotal gathering for “ -based education.”

Following a 180-second presentation on each program—covering its progress, experiences, and ambitions—thematic workshops provided an opportunity to discuss topics such as national and international appeal, ensuring the long-term sustainability of training initiatives through research, and the development of the PhD track.
