The Université de Paris-Sud is the largest campus in France and one of the most prestigious universities in Europe as evidenced by the Academic Ranking of World Universities. It is made of five areas, located in the towns of Orsay, Sceaux, Châtenay-Malabry, Cachan, and Kremlin-Bicêtre, all of which are in the southern suburbs of Paris. The Université de Paris Sud is well known for its expertise in science but is now involved in almost all fields from Mathematics to Social Sciences. University laboratories frequently join together to perform multidisciplinary research. The university will also take part in the creation of University of Paris-Saclay, a project that will be completed in a few year whose goal is to regroup the university with prestigious Schools (Grandes Ecoles) around Orsay.

It originated from the merger of two research Institutes in 1989: the Physiological Genetics Laboratory and the Microbiology Institute. The Institute of Genetics and Microbiology is devoted to the study of microorganisms to further both fundamental and applied research.The IGM accommodates 24 groups : 71 researchers, professors and assistant-professors, 55 engineers and technicians and about 68 PhD students and post-doctoral fellows.
