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.
