To welcome you, the Inalco Foundation invites you to an evening event dedicated to new students, on September 27.

At this event, you'll discover the story of Inalco and its disciplines, thanks to Emmanuel Lozerand, Professor of Japanese at Inalco and memorialist of Langues O', who will retrace, during a lecture, the stages in the progressive multiplication of Oriental languages, which are the pride and reputation of the establishment, where 106 languages are now taught.

The lecture will be followed by a cocktail reception in the salons of the Maison de la Recherche, Inalco's historic site, which you will also be able to visit.

We look forward to seeing you there!
