In August 2021, the School of Earth System Science(SESS), Tianjin University and INSTITUT DE PHYSIQUE DU GLOBE DE PARIS（IPGP）signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to facilitate more academic exchanges and cooperation.

Founded in 1921, INSTITUT DE PHYSIQUE DU GLOBE DE PARIS, has been conducting researches in all fields of solid Earth studies (Geophysics, Geochemistry, Quantitative Geology) by combining terrestrial and marine observation as well as laboratory analysis and measurement with the development of conceptual, analogical and digital models. IPGP's study of natural hazards includes responsibility for monitoring three French active volcanoes (La Soufrière in Guadeloupe, Mount Pelée in Martinique and Piton de la Fournaise in Réunion) and the worldwide Géoscope network of seismic stations. IPGP's work also makes a major contribution to the global Intermagnet（International Real-time Magnetic Observatory Network）network of magnetic observatories.
