Location of Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC)
The subject areas of earth sciences provides general teaching in the fields of the sciences of the Earth, universe and the environment, centred on multi-disciplinary foundations acquired in the BGPC programme (biology, geology, physics, chemistry) of the integration cycle (first year of licence) at UPMC. The teaching in earth sciences at levels L2 and L3 correspond to fundamental knowledge - both theoretical and practical - in the discipline.
The objective is to give students an education which combines observations
and measurements of land, experiments and modelling while integrating all of the professions in the sector: geology, paleontology, geophysics, geochemistry, hydrology, geotechnics.
The geotechnics option in partnership with the national conservatory of arts and professions is specialisation in L3.
Further studies
Master´s degree in sciences of the universe of the environment.
Professional integration
A partnership with the national conservatory for the arts and professions opens the way to professional master´s degrees. A professional licence in hydrology (water, quality resources and the environment) has been available since 2007 (entry at level L3). Students who have this licence can also enter teaching careers (primary-school teachers, secondary-school teachers).
