Hands-on activities

Field trips and labs allow students to apply the knowledge and skills acquired in class, such as in environmental data analysis,marine biodiversity, ecotoxicology&biotechnology.

In « The Scientific Adventure » students design their sampling strategy and collect data at Sea on the Lérins Archipelago. Then, these data are analysed in class and conclusions are communicated to the public

In «Depict Marine Biodiversity», students learn to identify marine organisms with the collections of the Oceanographic Museum of Monaco and they learn to collect & identify plankton in the Bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer
In «Response of Organisms to the Environment», students quantify the effect of different types of stressors on marine organisms, such as temperature, acidification and chemical pollution
In the biotechnology module, students spend one week in the lab to extract and identify bioactive molecules from marine resources to be used in cosmetics, pharmaceutics or agriculture

IMMERSION PROJECTS

Together with professionals of the public and private sectors, we have developed pluriannual projects with high-scale objectives. Students develop these projects over multiple years from cohort to cohort. This long-term approach allows students to get prepared for their 1st-year internship beforehand, and upon completion, to use extra-time to value their work and coach those who will take over. >> Learn more about immersion projects
