Unique to PSE globally

What IAM is

One programme.
Four ways to see the world.

International Academic Mobility combines three intensive Paris residency phases with an immersive academic study circuit through three cities chosen from one of four global itineraries.

Each itinerary is complete in itself — every path leads to the same Paris graduation, the same faculty, the same credential, through a different encounter with the world.

Travel & Immigration
The IAM programme is an academic training activity. Each student is solely responsible for verifying their travel documentation requirements and obtaining all necessary authorisations before each programme phase. PSE does not provide immigration advice and issues no document intended to substitute for any visa or entry requirement. Academic letters describing the programme may be provided for informational purposes only.
01
Three Paris residency phases
Phase 1 builds the foundation. Phase 2 develops the venture. Phase 3 defends and graduates it. Paris is the academic spine of the entire programme — present at every stage.
02
Four global itineraries — choose your map
European · Western World · New Economies · Global South. Each covers Paris plus three study cities. Every city chosen for its entrepreneurial ecosystem, programme relevance, and academic value.
03
Academic Residency Letters
For every in-person block, PSE issues an Academic Residency Letter describing the nature and dates of the academic activity. These letters are administrative documents — they do not confer any immigration right and do not substitute for any required visa or entry permit.
04
One published article per student
Every IAM student — at every programme level — leaves with an ISSN peer-reviewed publication. The Research and Production Period produces assessed academic work. This is the credential that travels everywhere.
IAM · Itinerary I
European Itinerary
Three Editions — designed for different travel profiles. Same academic content, same graduation, same credential. Every edition leads to the same Paris diploma via a different itinerary.
Classic Edition
Hybrid Edition
Emerging Corridors Edition
Travel & Immigration Notice
Students are solely responsible for verifying their own travel documentation requirements for each destination and obtaining all necessary authorisations before each programme phase. The Classic and Hybrid Editions include cities that require a separate entry authorisation for non-EU nationals. PSE does not provide immigration advice. Academic letters describing the programme are administrative documents and do not confer any entry right or substitute for any required visa. Students who are unable to access a particular city may transfer to the Emerging Corridors Edition at no programme penalty.

IAM · Itinerary II
Western World Itinerary
Paris · London · Toronto · New York — four of the top ten startup ecosystems on earth. The Anglo-Atlantic business corridor for founders targeting Western capital and international market access.
Travel & Immigration Notice
This itinerary includes cities that require separate travel authorisations for many nationalities: a UK Standard Visitor authorisation, a Canadian eTA, and a US B1/B2 visitor visa. Each authorisation must be obtained independently by the student before the relevant programme phase. Approval is at the sole discretion of each country's immigration authorities. PSE does not provide immigration advice and issues no document intended to substitute for any entry requirement. Students who are unable to obtain a required authorisation for any leg may transfer to the European Emerging Corridors Edition at no programme penalty.

Students and Families

What IAM means
for each of you

Prospective Students
You leave with proof, not a transcript
IAM is not study abroad with extra steps. You build a real venture, publish an academic paper under your own name, and leave with a QR-verifiable portfolio that shows every employer exactly what you created.
ISSN peer-reviewed publication — your name, your research, permanent academic record
Verified Venture Portfolio — QR-verifiable, employer-searchable proof of what you built
Live pitch to a confirmed investor panel — a real event in Paris
Certificate or diploma issued by a registered French institution of higher education
You are responsible for obtaining all required travel authorisations for every destination — PSE does not manage immigration processes on your behalf
Parents and Families
A year built for completion
Every parent wants to know their sons and daughters will complete what they start and leave with something real. IAM was designed with that question at its centre — in the academic structure, the legal standing, and the verifiable credential stack.
A legally registered French institution of higher education — same registration category as the grandes écoles that built France's academic reputation
ISSN publication under your son's or daughter's name — searchable, citable, permanent
Verified Venture Portfolio — scan a QR code and see exactly what they produced
Semester-boundary transfer system — pause and re-enter if circumstances change
Each student is solely responsible for their own visa and travel authorisations — PSE issues academic letters for informational purposes only, not immigration documents
