Since its creation, ENSAPLV has developed a wide-ranging research activity, the aim of which is to produce knowledge that will contribute to the evolution of architecture, urban planning and landscape design, and to their adaptation to changes in the planet and society.
Research is an integral part of the school’s identity, and is widely disseminated by its teacher-researchers, who carry out almost all their work within the school. The school also strives to maintain a balance between professional and research training, to guarantee a diversity of choices.
Research teams work in the fields of architecture, urban planning, territories and landscape, drawing on philosophy, sociology, anthropology, history, ergonomics, geography, computer science, cognitive science and design science.
