Geoscience master
The Geoscience (STPE) master of Université Montpellier offers a two-years program that aims at:
- Forming engineer-level executives and research scientists in the fields of Earth Sciences applied to characterization, exploration, and sustainable management of geological resources and natural hazards.
- Developing fundamental and applied knowledge and competences in Earth dynamics, geological processes, and their interactions with the environment, leading to a variety of careers in the industry and academic domains.
The Geoscience master is developed for autonomous and motivated students, with interest in field and laboratory studies as well as analytical and numerical tools used in modern Earth sciences. The program is strongly supported by the expertise of the research teams of the Geoscience Laboratory of the Université Montpellier as well as a large network of professional experts in partner industries.

Entry requirements
The applicants must have a Licence degree (+3 years curriculum after the bachelor degree) or equivalent in any science domain. It is not restricted to Earth Sciences as we are more interested in your overall ability than in the precise content of your pre-university studies. However, applicants should note that achieving the minimum entrance requirement will not guarantee an offer of admission as we have many more applicants than available places. There are no restrictions about the country of origin.
