French Universities in the top international rankings
French Universities are recognized internationally for their excellence in Mathematics. French Mathematicians have won 12 Fields Medals to date, the 2nd country in the league table.
The high ranking combined with generous state subsidies and plenty of scholarship opportunities means that France offers one of the most cost-effective high-quality tertiary education in the world.
6 French universities feature in the Top 100 universities for Mathematics research in the world (QS World University Rankings 2020) and increasingly, most top universities are starting to teach in English, opening up to a wider cohort of students.
Cost of Education in France
France has long placed a lot of emphasis on investment in basic Sciences Research. This is evident from a large number of publicly funded research organizations in France, CNRS, INRIA etc. besides well funded doctoral schools within universities.
For international students, this translates to high-quality education at a very reasonable price. In most basic science courses in state universities, including Mathematics, the entire tuition fees are almost never borne by the student. Students are instead required to pay government-mandated registration fees for their courses which are very nominal (2770 EUR for Bachelors and 3770 EUR for masters in most cases)
