History[]
Gustave Eiffel University was created by French government decree,[3] and was founded on 1 January 2020. The University of Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée (UPEM) and the IFSTTAR national research institute are fused into the new university; whereas three engineering schools, ESIEE Paris, the École des ingénieurs de la Ville de Paris (EIVP), the École nationale des sciences géographiques (ENSG Géomatique) and the architecture school, École d'architecture de la ville & des territoires Paris-Est - join the new university while each retaining its separate legal status. The fusion was decided upon despite the formal opposition[7][8] of unions representing UPEM workers.
