Parisian Master of Research in Computer Science
Master Parisien de Recherche en Informatique (MPRI)

2016-2017 Agenda

M1

The M1 year is organized by each of the partner institutions.

M2

The kickoff meeting will take place on Monday, September 12, 2016 at 10:30 in salle des thèses, 580F, 5th floor, sector F, la Halle aux farines building.

Addess: 10-16 rue Françoise Dolto, 75013 Paris. Métro : ligne 14, RER C : Bibliothèque F. Mitterrand.

Beware that the access to the room is slightly tricky: once you are on the ground floor of the Halle aux farines building, go to sector E, even numbers side, and take elevator (or stairs) to sector F.

A small buffet will be organized between the end of the meeting and the beginning of the courses.

Slides of the kickoff meeting 2016-2017.

The lectures will start on Monday, September 12 at 12:45.

There will be a Christmas break from December 17 2016 until January 2, 2017 (bounds included). There is no other break.

The M2 lectures are divided in two periods of 10 weeks, each period is followed by 2 weeks of examinations.

  • From September 12 2016 until November 18 2016 : first lecture period.
  • From November 21, 2016 until December 2, 2016 : final or mid-term exams.
  • From December 5, 2016 until February 24, 2017 : second lecture period.
  • From February 27, 2017 until March 10, 2017 : exams.

M2 lectures take place in Batiment Sophie Germain

Research internships last 4.5 months (at least) and may start from March 13, 2015. Internships are typically defended the first week of September.

Summary of main deadlines

  • Sep. 30: submission of a study plan (on the pedagogical server)
  • Jan. 15: canceling or adding registration to modules (on the pedagogical server, via your Study Director). NB you cannot cancel MPRI modules for which you passed mid-term or final exams.
  • Jan. 31: submission of an internship choice (on the pedagogical server)
  • Mar. 31: submission of courses' evaluations (on the pedagogical server)
  • Apr. 30: retaking exams requests (by email to the Professor in charge of the course, with copy to the Master Director)
  • Jul. 31: retaking exams (by appointment)
  • Aug. 21: internship reports upload (on the pedagogical server)

2016-2017 SCHEDULE M2-MPRI COURSES

All courses take place in rooms located in building Sophie Germain.

The schedule specifies whether the course is taught in period 1, period 2, or both periods (1-2).

Slots last 3 hours with default starting time: 8:45 in the morning, 12:45 at midday, and 16:15 in the evening.

Unless announced otherwise on the page of the course, the default starting time for courses that last 2.5 hours is the beginning of the slot. Similarly, by default, courses start the first week of each period. For a course that lasts 1.5 hours, the last column mentions whether it starts in the middle of the slot (10:15, 14:30, 17:45).

The first 3 lectures of the course 2.37.1 Semantics, languages and algorithms for multicore programming (period 2) will actually take place on Monday in the midday slot (12:45–15:45). NEW: there will also be a special session on Monday, February 13 (12:45–15:45). Consult the page of the course for more detailed informations.
