Two women honored as laureates of the Institut Universitaire de France
We are delighted to celebrate the recognition of two exceptional women as laureates of the Institut Universitaire de France, one of the highest academic honors in France:
- Emmanuelle Auriol, Director of the Economics Department at TSE and a researcher specializing in industrial organization, public economics, and development economics.
- Sophie Moinas, Professor of Finance at TSE and at the Toulouse School of Management, specializing in market microstructure and experimental finance.
Through their rigorous, visionary, and committed work, they embody intellectual excellence and the ability to shed light on major contemporary economic issues.
This distinction not only honors the quality of their academic publications but also recognizes their significant contributions to economic research, teaching, and the dissemination of knowledge—through both scholarly work and public engagement via media interviews and articles.
They demonstrate that economics is not merely a matter of numbers but a human science, deeply connected to the transformations shaping our society.
Their achievements continue to inspire new generations of researchers, professionals, and students.
