Testimonials

I chose the MSc. MARRES to become a marine professional. By giving me the chance to learn from teachers coming from disciplines such as business management, ecotoxicology research and international policy, I got to explore perspectives of marine sciences, as well as widening my network. Besides, lessons are combined with a range of opportunities to develop my practical skills, such as the participation in events and, of course, our Immersion Project, which gives hand-on experience on my fields of interest and an option of exploring new ones. Finally, being students coming from all around the world generates a very stimulating environment to learn and to enjoy the assets of the French Riviera.

I chose Université Côte d’Azur and the MSc. MARRES because more than offering a pretty incredible living environment on the French Riviera, this program is very innovative. At MARRES we are taught more than marine biology! The international and multidisciplinary approach with courses in law applied to the marine environment and entrepreneurship, for example, really helps to explore the vast opportunities that Ocean can offer. A plus of this Master is the facilitated access to the professional world directly in first year, through the immersion project. It allows to discover and test your interests.
