Research units
The research policy of the EPHE-PSL is supported by a dense network of research units. The professors are divided into 45 units. Some are units for which the EPHE-PSL is in charge of; others are units welcoming into their midst professors from the EPHE-PSL. The EPHE-PSL is thus active in 18 units in Humanities and Social Sciences and 27 units in Life and Earth Sciences.
