Université Paris V - René Descartes

Université Paris V - René Descartes, 12 rue de l'Ecole de Médecine, 75006 Paris, France
3.66 / 5 based on 36 reviews.
Description:
Le siège de l'Université René Descartes est situé 12, rue de l'Ecole de Médecine à Paris 6e, dans les bâtiments abritant autrefois le collège de chirurgie. En 1769, Louis XV en confie la construction à l'architecte Jacques Gondouin et Louis XVI, en 1774, pose la "dernière pierre" de l'amphithéâtre. Le décret du 21 mars 1970 crée une université pluridisciplinaire à partir des anciennes facultés de Paris : médecine, pharmacie, lettres, sciences humaines.
