Graduate Schools: University Research Institutions

Graduate Schools, or university research schools, are institutions established to enhance the quality of your master’s program. Their goal is to forge a strong link between teaching and research laboratories. In this way, they ensure a high-quality education that is directly connected to scientific advancements, thereby optimizing your transition into demanding scientific careers.

A training program closely linked to scientific research

  • Your master's program courses are complemented by specialized and innovative courses, which are often interdisciplinary and taught by leading researchers.
  • You'll be immersed in the labs, which allows you to participate in high-quality research internships and interact with doctoral students and experienced researchers.

International visibility and openness

  • Graduate schools have a strong international focus. They aim to increase the visibility of your degree abroad.
  • They generally offer mobility grants to enable you to complete internships or study abroad at foreign universities or laboratories.
  • Some of the courses may be taught in English.

Increased support

  • The Graduate Schools are implementing programs to support you throughout your academic journey: mentoring, thematic seminars, and preparation for entering the workforce or pursuing a Ph.D.
  • They offer merit-based scholarships to attract the best students, whether they are French or international.
