Japan in the spotlight from March 2 to 16, 2026
ENSA Paris-la Villette is delighted to welcome a delegation from its Japanese partner universities: The University of Tokyo, Meiji University, Chiba University, Tokyo City University, Insitute of Science Tokyo, Kyoto University, Kyushu University.
Their visit, made possible thanks to funding from the European Union’s Erasmus+ program, is accompanied by a number of events that will benefit the school’s students, alumni and teaching staff, most of which will also be open to the general public. Course presentations, round tables and conferences, as well as an exhibition, will provide ample opportunity for meetings and exchanges.
This event is intended both as a retrospective celebrating the educational, scientific and human relations that have linked ENSAPLV and its Japanese academic partners for several decades, and as an opportunity to initiate new research and educational projects co-constructed on promising themes for the future.
COAL Student Award 2026: The Night
Application deadline: April 28, 2026
Created in 2019, the Student COAL Prize aims to support students from Schools in the artistic and cultural field who are experimenting with and proposing concrete, creative solutions to the ecological transition.
The theme of the 2026 edition is “Night”.
Two prizes are on offer this year: the winning student receives a two-month residency worth 5,000 euros in one of France’s 350 nature reserves. The three nominated students also receive an invitation to take part in the Regenerative Academy. This unique masterclass, created and piloted for the new MAIF Métamorphoses Prize, is dedicated to transformative artistic practices in and with nature, biodiversity and public engagement.
The call for applications is open to all students who have completed 2 years of higher education, whatever their practice and field of study (design and applied arts, architecture and landscape, visual arts, music, dance, theater, circus, puppetry, cinema, audiovisual, multimedia) and up to one year after graduation.
Bourse dessinée 2026
Deadline for receipt of applications: April 2, 2026
The call for applications is open to students enrolled in 2025-2026 in a national school of architecture, from L2 to Master’s level.The aim of this grant, organized by the Cité de l’architecture in partnership with the ENSAÉCO network, is to support a personal research-creation process carried out exclusively through hand-drawing, seen as a critical, sensitive and exploratory tool, focusing on contemporary ecological issues.
Each year, a different theme is proposed. The four winners will produce their own sketchbook, each receiving a lump-sum grant of €4,000 gross, paid as royalties in return for the transfer of rights to the works produced as part of the project, under the conditions defined in the contract.
This year’s theme is “Inhabiting the living”: towards an architecture in dialogue with the animal and plant world.
ENSAPLV commits to equal opportunities in access to architectural studies
In partnership with the Fondation Culture & Diversité, the school is hosting its first “Equal opportunities at the school of architecture” course, from February 9 to 13.
Students taking part in this program benefit from courses, visits to cultural institutions, building sites and/or agencies, and meetings with teachers and professionals. Together, they produce an architectural project.
The aim is to inform them about architectural studies and career opportunities, and to prepare them for the Parcoursup and selection procedures for the Écoles nationales supérieures d’architecture (ENSA). Admitted students are then supported throughout their university studies.
