Every year, CNRS organises competitive entrance examinations for researchers and senior researchers. The Litt&Arts unit (UMR 5316, CNRS/Université Grenoble Alpes) invites candidates for CNRS section 35 competitive entrance examinations who would like to request the support of our unit, to contact us to discuss your plans.
The unit’s research is based on four main themes:
