Semester 1 M2

Students have the opportunity to test and apply their

skills during two training periods occurring in Year 1

(two months) and Year 2 (six months) of the Master.

These training periods most often take place in the

chemistry labs located on the Bordeaux campus but

other opportunities are available and may arise in

other academic or industrial laboratories.

All teaching modules (Master Year 1 and 2) are open to non-francophone students.
