The thematic scientific networks (RST), a label of the French Ministry of Culture, authorized by the Sub-Directorate for Higher Education and Research in Architecture and Landscape, aim to develop and promote scientific production in the fields of architecture, towns and landscapes in the national, European and international research arena.
They complement the research units of the ENSAs by virtue of the highly thematic nature of their scientific projects, but also because of their ability to bring together forces spread across broad geographical and disciplinary areas.
ENSA Paris-la Villette coordinates one of these networks: RAMAU.
RAMAU – Activities and Professions in Architecture and Urban Planning Network
This research and information network, set up in 1998, covers the various activities involved in developing and designing construction, urban planning, development and landscape projects in France and Europe.
