  École des Ponts ParisTech (École nationale des ponts et chaussées, ENPC) is a
  leading French public engineering grande école based in Champs-sur-Marne, ranked
  #205 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer/API footprint
  is research- and library-oriented rather than a commercial developer program: the
  institution operates an institutional open-access repository as the ENPC collection
  within the national HAL platform, which is harvestable through the HAL Search API
  and an OAI-PMH endpoint. The school maintains a small public GitHub organization
  (EcoleDesPontsParisTech) hosting an OAI-PMH repository plugin used for exposing its
  digital heritage library metadata to Gallica and Europeana. No general-purpose,
  self-service developer portal with course, timetable, or identity APIs was found
  publicly documented.

    name: HAL Search API (ENPC collection)
    description: >-
      École des Ponts ParisTech's scientific output is deposited in its institutional
      open-access repository, exposed as the ENPC collection on the national HAL
      platform operated by CCSD. The HAL Search API (Solr-backed) returns publication
      metadata in JSON/XML; the ENPC collection endpoint resolves and reports tens of
      thousands of records. The API is national HAL infrastructure scoped to the
      institution's collection, not an ENPC-hosted endpoint.

    name: HAL OAI-PMH Endpoint
    description: >-
      The HAL platform hosting the ENPC institutional repository collection exposes an
      OAI-PMH 2.0 endpoint for metadata harvesting. The Identify verb resolves live and
      the ENPC set can be harvested for the institution's open-access records. This is
      shared national HAL infrastructure scoped via set selectors.

    description: >-
      Public PHP source hosted on the official EcoleDesPontsParisTech GitHub
      organization. A forked OAI-PMH repository plugin for Omeka, modified for the
      project exposing the school's digital heritage library metadata (in Dublin Core)
      for harvesting by Gallica and Europeana. This is open-source software rather than
      a hosted API service.
