Teaching and Research Chairs at ESTP

At ESTP, research and education move forward hand in hand. Our Teaching–Innovation–Research Chairs act as powerful drivers to imagine and design the built environment of tomorrow.

They address the major challenges of constructability, ecological transition, and digital transformation.

Driving Change, Building a More Sustainable Future

Designed as collaborative platforms between the school, industry, local authorities, and academia, ESTP’s chairs make it possible to:

  • Develop targeted educational programs
  • Fund applied research projects
  • Transfer and promote knowledge directly relevant to industry

 

Each chair relies on dedicated governance, strong partnerships, and a clear vision of the sector’s transformation challenges.
