The EPFL Press was launched in 2004 as the English-language imprint of the Presses polytechniques et universaires romandes (PPUR), based at the Swis Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL).  The mission of the Press is to provide its authors the services of an academic publisher with international  reach.  The experience and quality of the PPUR, together through a major English-language distribution partner (Taylor and Francis Group), guarantees the impact that our ambitious authors demand.
