OUR CONVICTIONS

42 ENGAGES - A WORD FROM SOPHIE VIGER

Choosing 42 is, of course, choosing excellence. But 42 is much more than that. At 42, we aim to educate students who are aware of their responsibility for the common future. This responsibility involves an ‘altruistic ethic’: always keeping the well-being of others in mind.

42 will never compromise on the values of respect, solidarity, and tolerance upon which it was founded. In a constantly evolving world, facing various crises of all kinds, these values serve as a compass for navigating the world with pride and integrity. They make a difference both in professional and personal life.

42’s proactive social policy (free tuition, openness to atypical profiles) allows students who may face social or academic difficulties to reconnect with education every year. Success at 42 is even more meaningful when it is accompanied by social mobility.

42 aims to maximize the number of women in its program without seeking to impose arbitrary parity. Gender parity is neither a goal nor an end in itself; it is a tool to diversify our student population and, beyond that, promote creativity. Women have a rightful place at 42 and in the broader field of technology.

Choosing 42 also means being chosen by 42 to become a member of a large family united by a common passion: programming. Together, we will reach the pinnacle of technical excellence while nurturing our humanism.

A SITE FOR EVERYONE

One cannot claim to be a different and open educational institution without having a website that matches our ambitions. The redesign of 42’s website in 2021 was an opportunity to subtly act to allow everyone to envision a future in computer science.

We have made every effort to ensure that 42’s website reflects our inclusion policy by adhering to best practices and standards for internet navigation and reading.

Our priority has been to enable everyone to project themselves at 42. For this, we have preferred inclusive writing based on double inflection and the use of epicene forms.

We wanted to celebrate one of 42’s strengths: our profiles are diverse, which is our strength. For this, we did not need artificial processes. We decided to photograph our own male and female students on campus in their everyday moments. These images now illustrate 42’s website, and we are honored by their participation.

Of course, all of this is not perfect. We will continue to update our communication materials while keeping these values in mind. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you notice any errors. Spelling, inclusivity, readability issues, etc.: we are eager to improve with your feedback.
