SML Master’s degree
Marine and Coastal Sciences
The Master’s degree in Marine and Coastal Sciences is unique in France. It combines 8 specialities in the same domain, each covering different aspects of Marine and Coastal Sciences according to its disciplinary field: Biotechnology, Biology, Environmental Management, Applied Economics, Law of Maritime Activities, Earth, Planetary and Environmental Sciences, Chemistry and Life Sciences, Marine Physics.
This field of training is crucial for the coherence and visibility of an exceptional multidisciplinary thematic offer with strong economic and societal stakes and a close synergy between teaching, research and business.
The Master’s degree, backed by the research laboratories of IUEM and its partners (CNRS, IRD, Ifremer, SHOM, Cedre, CEREMA, ENSTA, IMT Atlantique, ENIB, Ecole Navale) offers the best educational conditions to train future professionals who are experts in their disciplines and able to establish partnerships between the natural sciences (ecologists, geochemists, biologists and geologists) and society (geographers, lawyers, economists).
The SML Master’s degree emphasises interdisciplinarity around Marine Sciences, but also internationalization by hosting international students, by encouraging incoming and outgoing mobility and specific actions.
The SML Master’s degree implements initiatives to help its students’ professional integration.
The SML master’s degree offers the framework for the “sea” continuing education from UBO to IUEM and offers a complete catalogue.
