Introductions to simple physics concepts (optics, mechanics), applied to problems of biological interest.

This is a first approach to the integrative biology of organisms.

This course, entitled "From Cells to Organisms", covers structure-function relationships at different scales, from the cell (or molecule) to the organism in its environment.

The primary aim of this teaching unit is to introduce students to scientific ecology in all its diversity. Particular attention is paid to the definition of scientific ecology, in relation to the meaning of the term "ecology" (political ecology or ecologism) in the media and for the general public. The place of the environment in the scientific study of ecology is also clarified. With the help of tutorials and practical exercises, three major themes in ecology are covered: paleoecology, functional ecology& evolutionary ecology. It is important to note that these themes are supported by a particularly active scientific community in Montpellier.

This teaching unit is designed to provide a general context for understanding the Earth sciences and biology, while taking into account the fields of the Humanities and Social Sciences. Today's Earth is not detached from its past. To understand the impacts of environmental and climatic transformations on planet Earth, a diachronic (long time, change over time) and synchronic (spatial variations) approach is required.

Accordingly, this EU presents the history of the Earth through geological time. It discusses the structure, composition and processes of the Earth. Issues, concerns and problems related to natural hazards are also included. The lessons will also provide students with the necessary grounding to understand the societal issues surrounding climate and environmental questions. The spin-offs of this course are essential for the well-being of tomorrow's society, enabling us to train young citizens or future workers capable of analyzing, criticizing and thinking about past, present and future environmental and climate issues, and of participating in decision-making in societal debates on environmental risks. This course has therefore been designed by teacher-researchers from different scientific fields (Earth and Water Sciences, Ecology, Philosophy, Political Science), demonstrating that approaches ranging from the fundamental to the operational are necessary.

This UE is divided into two parts. 

The first is designed to consolidate the skills acquired in secondary school that are essential for higher studies in the sciences: understanding proportionality and linearity, calculating with powers, manipulating fractions and solving simple equations. 

The second part will be devoted to the study of functions of one real variable: the emphasis will be on the usual functions, the graphical representation of functions, and the mathematical notion of derivative (or instantaneous rate of increase). 

Most of the concepts covered will be illustrated with concrete examples from biology.

This module focuses on experimental techniques in chemistry. The first part will be devoted to the presentation of hygiene and safety rules in the chemistry laboratory. Each lab session will be preceded by a preparatory lab session. At the end of each lab session, students will be asked to write up a laboratory notebook/report (analysis, use of results, etc.).
