Université Paris Cité is committed to internationalising part of its study programmes and supporting academic staff who wish to be part of this initiative. In order to provide them with the best support possible in gradually transforming their course modules, it has developed PAcIForm, the Programme for Supporting the Internationalisation of Education. Find out how you can benefit from it before 2 March!

PAcIForm: a two-part support programme
Under this programme, academic staff at our university will be able to receive support, if necessary, in:
– Finding partners through the internationalisation network and Circle U. the European alliance, which can finance the preliminary meetings necessary for the construction of modules through its bottom-up call for proposals.
– Adapting modules to virtual and hybrid modes and teaching materials in foreign languages with the educational engineers of the Educational Innovation Centre (Pôle Innovation Pédagogique – PIP) (advice on active teaching methods, presentation of the university’s technical tools, etc.).
The programme also provides for recognition of their time investment over two years. Hours will be calculated according to the following scale: 1 hour = 1.5 hours of ETD.
Additional hours will be paid to the module manager at the end of each academic year, provided that the module has been effectively developed and implemented. A short form must be sent to the team responsible for monitoring the programme before 30 June of each academic year concerned.
Application form
Interested academic staff must return the completed application form before 2 March 2026, 11:59 p.m. Paris time, to the following address: paciform@u-paris.fr
