Mir@bel, is the result of a network of monitoring partners, including theENSA Normandie Documentation Center. It is managed by Sciences-Po Lyon. The site lists open-access journals on the Internet and provides the public with links to them. The ArchiRès/Mir@bel partnership is reflected on our documentation portal by the inclusion of a button  which takes you to the Mir@bel website. For example, by clicking on  In the entry for the magazine L'architecture d'aujourd'hui, Mir@bel will tell you that issues from 1930 to 1953 have been digitized on the Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine website.

Have you heard of Compilatio? No? It's the anti-plagiarism software thatENSA Normandie has been usingENSA Normandie 2019. It allows teachers to check whether students' work complies with copyright law. There is a student version (Compilatio Studium), which is a good tool for reassuring yourself and finding out whether sources are cited correctly. Infoplag, the anti-plagiarism website set up by the Documentation Center, centralizes all the information you need, including the referral code that allows students to use Compilatio Studium for free.

Since 2017,ENSA Normandie Master's program in Architecture, City, and TerritoryENSA Normandie collaborating with Guadeloupe's Department of Cultural Affairs (DAC). Each year, around 20 students from Normandy discover this overseas department and base their semester project on a territory that they learn to interpret and analyze. The aim of the teachers is to encourage students to take an interest in complex situations and invite them to place their projects in the context of broad, shared issues: those of landscape and the environment, changing urban configurations, and social, programmatic, industrial, and technological transformations.

Teachers in charge: Rémi Ferrand, and Céline Orsingher

Following his participation as a member of the jury for the 2023 Architecture Prize and the ensuing debates on the winning projects, Valéry Didelon, architecture critic, author, and professor atENSA Normandie, wrote an article in the December 2023 issue. He continues the debate, explaining the choice of winners and offering his vision of a new generation of architects who are less concerned than their predecessors with grandiose aesthetics and more interested in a different aesthetic that encompasses ethical notions and social and environmental responsibility.
