Purchase a tour book called Access Paris, which gives you complete details the way you will use it, by district. The book is updated yearly and available at major bookstores.
Stay in the Left Bank. That's the area south of the Seine River and includes the student quarter. There are many small hotels in the area around St. Sulplice church just south of Odeon. It's less expensive than the Right Bank and more fun. Go to La Coupole for dinner on the Blvd. Montparnasse, this is a must experience.

Alright well of course Paris is so huge, you can't do all of it in one week. I'm going to assume that your first day and last days count towards "travel days".... 1st day settling, last day packing up and getting ready to go home. remember that you are going to be experiencing some jetlag considering the 7 hour time difference.
Day 1- travel day
Day 2- eiffel tower (go early to avoid all the tourists), visit the louvre (you can't see everything but in 3 hours you can hit a lot of the hotspots)
Day 3- montmarte (be careful for people targetting tourists for selling high priced junk!!!), notre dame, a stroll down the champs elysees for some shopping and a great view of the arc de triomphe, dinner at charlie birdy's off the champs elysees (cool bar!)
Day 4- palace of versailles (king louis XIV)- this is a day trip in its own, come back to paris and try some pizza (all pizza restaurants are run by italians so it will be authentic and not anything like pizza hut.... think gourmet)
Day 5- centre pompidou, jardin de luxembourg (park), les invalides (napoleon's tombe)
Day 6- rodin museum (the thinker), shopping at les galleries lafayette, place de la concorde
Day 7- travel day
Make sure you take the metro, taxis are ridiculously expensive. Purchase a "carte orange" for a weeklong metro pass. Have fun and live like a Parisian, submerge yourself in the wonderful culture, and watch out for pickpockets.

Take a citywide bus tour (about 2 hrs) and then decide what you want to see in detail. The Louvre is a must see IMHO.
