Pantheon-Sorbonne University (Template:Lang-fr), also known as "Paris I", is a public research university in Paris, France. It is multidisciplinary and focuses on economics, law, cinema, plastic arts, philosophy, political and social sciences. It is a member of the alliance called Hautes Études-Sorbonne-Arts et Métiers.
Pantheon-Sorbonne's headquarters is located on the Place du Panthéon and it ocupies also the Sorbonne in the 5th and the 6th arrondissements of Paris, its name derives from those two buildings.

While Paris-Sorbonne University succedeed only the faculty of humanities of Sorbonne University, Panthéon-Assas University only the faculty of law and economics and Pierre and Marie Curie University only the faculty of sciences, Panthéon-Sorbonne University was founded on a wish for interdisciplinarity by bringing together disciplines. The name of the university show this interdisciplinarity: the Sorbonne building is the traditional seat of the Humanities studies in Paris (hence it is also used by Paris III and University Paris-Sorbonne), and the Panthéon building is, with the Assas building, the traditional seat of the law studies (hence it is also used by Panthéon-Assas University).
