Unique school that does not prepare for any degree, buildings built under the reign of Henry II in Paris
The advent of Collège de France in 1530 is due to François I who, following the request of the humanist François Budé, decided to create a new structure of higher education that would not be controlled by the University of Paris. It is under the reign of Henri II that the buildings were built; it was enlarged several times since. There are also annexes at 52, Cardinal-Lemoine Street and 3, Ulm Street. The principle of the Collège de France is that teachers are free to deliver courses as they see fit. This unique school in its kind does not lead to any diploma. Another important feature: everyone has the right to attend the classes, within the limits of available places. Chairs held by professors and researchers cover a wide range of fields: mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, history, archaeology, linguistics, orientalism, philosophy, social sciences...
