Description
An internship lasting 2 to 4 months must be carried out in a research laboratory or company specializing in extractive or separative chemistry, recycling chemistry, radiochemistry, materials chemistry or process chemistry. Students will have the opportunity to carry out this end-of-study internship in academic research laboratories or industrial establishments. Subject to prior approval by the teaching staff (internship subject in line with Master's courses and suitable environment/means), students may seek a host team in an academic environment in the institutes of the Chemistry Pole of the University of Montpellier, in academic laboratories outside the University of Montpellier (in France or abroad) or in the private sector (in France or abroad).
This 2 to 4 month internship can start at the beginning of May, and will be preceded by the submission of a bibliographical report on the internship topic, and an oral defense before a jury.
Objectives
The aim of this teaching unit is to enable students to work in a research laboratory or industrial setting, so as to complete their training and gain greater autonomy. The aim is also to help students gain a better understanding of their career plans. This teaching unit is designed to help students integrate more effectively into the professional world.
Knowledge control
Report writing and oral presentation.
Syllabus
The objective of the internship is to provide students with an initial experience (2 to 4 months) in a professional environment (research laboratory, company) in order to apply the theoretical and practical knowledge acquired during the first year of the master's degree. This immersive experience will allow students to understand the challenges of academic or applied research, the conduct of a scientific project in a team as well as the practical application of both experimental and theoretical knowledge.
