Since its creation in 1991, theUniversité de Cergy-Pontoise (now CY Cergy Paris Université) has developed laboratories in a wide variety of fields: physics, geosciences, the environment, computer science, biology, etc. These laboratories, along with the bachelor's and master's degree courses they offer, are all part of theCergy-Pontoise campus. These laboratories, its bachelor's and master's degree courses in the history of science and civilization, and its engineering courses, are all evidence of a lively scientific scene in Cergy, capable of combining research, teaching and outreach.
