CY Cergy Paris University

CY Cergy Paris University, in French CY Cergy Paris Université, is a public university in the Île-de-France region of France that was formally created on 1 January 2020 by merging Cergy-Pontoise University with the engineering school EISTI.CY塞尔吉-巴黎大学（CY Cergy Paris Université）是法国法兰西岛大区的一所公立大学，依法案于2020年1月1日由原塞尔吉-蓬图瓦兹大学与国际信息处理科学学院（EISTI）合并组建而成。

It operates as an experimental public institution across twelve campuses around the Cergy-Pontoise new town northwest of Paris, and it is placed in the 901-950 band of the QS 2027 World University Rankings.它以实验性公立机构的身份在巴黎西北方向的塞尔吉-蓬图瓦兹新城一带运营十二座校区，并在2027年QS世界大学排名中位列第901-950位区间。

Its short name takes the first and last letters of Cergy, so that CY also sounds like the English phrase see why, while the two letters recall the loop formed by the Seine and the Oise rivers near Cergy-Pontoise.其简称取自Cergy一词的首尾字母，两个字母也呼应塞尔吉-蓬图瓦兹附近塞纳河与瓦兹河围合而成的河环。

History

• In the 1960s Bernard Hirsch, the chief designer responsible for developing the new town of Cergy, planned to establish a university there, but the scheme was shelved because of the distance from Paris and the poor transport links of the time.1960年代主持塞尔吉新城发展总体设计的伯纳德·埃尔施（Bernard Hirsch）曾计划在新城内建一所大学，但方案因当地距巴黎较远、交通不便而被搁置。
