It achieves its best score in the faculty/student ratio metric, where it is ranked among the top 100 universities in the world.

The institution has relocated its campuses to Gif-sur-Yvette, France's 'Silicon Valley,' where it is conveniently located among other members of the Paris-Saclay research and commercial center. Its original campus in Cachan, however, preserves student housing and administrative offices.
