Languedoc-Roussillon Universities (COMUE-LR)

[icon type= »caret-right »] The 26 COMUE in France (Communauté d’universités et établissements – Community of Universities and Establishments) mainly intend to coordinate training offers and research strategies of public higher education establishments on a given territory.

[icon type= »caret-right »] The Languedoc-Roussillon COMUE enables to gather higher education and research establishments of the region (universities, faculties, large establishments, schools, institutes, general hospitals…). It is essentially a way of promoting competency in terms of research and training in the international scientific competition. Gathering linked establishments stimulates coordination of actions and mutuality of means in many shared projects.

University of Montpellier (UM)

[icon type= »caret-right »] A university is an establishment which federates within it production (research), conservation (publications and libraries) and transmission (higher education) of differents fields of knowledge. Universities are divided into academic departments, schools or faculties (or UFR for Unités de Formation et de Recherche – Units of Training and Research).

[icon type= »caret-right »] University of Montpellier unites 17 components (9 Faculties, 6 Institutes and 2 Schools) and 72 research structures organized in 9 scientific departments. The University offers the chance to acquire multiple skills and it has an internationally known expertise in a large range of scientific fields such as biology-health, agro-environment, chemistry, sciences and technologies of information and communication… Armed with 40.000 students, it is today the 6th French university.

Faculty of Sciences (FdS)

[icon type= »caret-right »] A faculty is one of the constituent structures of a university in charge of teaching and research in an homogenous disciplinary field. It can be divided into departments, sections, divisions, centers, services, colleges, units, etc.

[icon type= »caret-right »] The Sciences UFR is a component of Montpellier University. The Sciences Faculty of Montpellier develops its activity around 12 teaching departments by offering a complete higher education training for students in the Sciences field and by contributing to research activity. 

Biology-Living Mechanism Department(Bio-L V)

[icon type= »caret-right »] A training department is one of the structures that form the Research and Training Units (Unités de formation et de recherche (UFR)), dedicated to teaching more than research.

[icon type= »caret-right »] The Bio-LM department (Biology-Living Mechanism) trains students in all the Biology fields, from biochemistry and molecular biology to physiology and integrative biology, at Bachelor level and Master level.

[icon type= »angle-double-right »] The Master courses of the Department are related to two Doctoral Schools: « Biology-Health (CBS2) » and « Integrated systems in Biology, Agronomics, Geosciences, Hydrosciences, Environment (SIBAGHE) »
[icon type= »angle-double-right »] The courses lean on research centers particularly strong at Montpellier in the Health, Agrosciences and Environment fields (and interactions with the Chemistry and Mathematics-Computer Sciences centers). The courses are  carried out in relation with the numerous research laboratories of these centers.

Campus Mag LR

[icon type= »caret-right »] The different higher education and research establishments of the Languedoc-Roussillon gathered to offer a TV program presenting life on campus, scientific and cultural news, achievements and future projects.
