History of Bordeaux School of Economics

Bordeaux School of Economics (BSE) is one of France's leading economics research centers. A joint research unit of the University of Bordeaux, CNRS, and INRAE, it brings together a community of around 160 researchers, engineers, technicians, and doctoral students.

The BSE project is based on the belief that research in the social sciences, and particularly in economics, is essential for better informing public decision-making in response to major contemporary challenges. By mobilizing the necessary human and material resources, BSE aims to position the Bordeaux university campus as a center of academic excellence in economic research, open to other scientific disciplines, and capable of making a significant contribution to public policy at the local, national, and international levels.

Whether addressing topics such as climate change and biodiversity, the innovation strategies of socio-economic actors, issues of inequality between and within countries, or the dynamics of globalization and financial markets, BSE members are committed to producing research that combines academic excellence, partnerships with socio-economic stakeholders, and outreach to the general public.


Bordeaux, your congress destination

Bordeaux is the largest urban area ever to be listed a UNESCO World Heritage site. Located in the South West of France, Bordeaux Métropole is home to 802,000 inhabitants in 28 towns, among which the city of Bordeaux with 260,000 inhabitants. 

Only two hours from Paris with the high-speed train, Bordeaux has consistently been classified as the most attractive city in France to live and work in the recent years. This is mainly due to its recognized quality of life, taking into account that half of the 57,000 hectares of the Bordeaux metropolis are natural and agricultural areas.

It is also considered the wine capital of France. It is a great place to explore French culture, history, vineyards and gastronomy. It is also near the Atlantic Ocean (<1h by car, train or bus), and the famous Pyla Dune, the largest sand dune of Europe.
