PIA - SFRI
An investment in the future for a historic university
The Inter Disciplinary - In Lab' Project is the graduate program of the University of Montpellier. Funded by the Programme d'Investissement d'Avenir 3, it responds to the call for projects "Structuration de la Formation par la Recherche dans les Initiatives d'Excellence" (SFRI).
The aim of the project is to transform the University's pedagogy by offering students training through Research for Research's sake, by immersing students in laboratories from the Master 1 level onwards.
The program will be implemented gradually, starting with 8 inaugural Master's programs and 1 engineering track from the beginning of the 2022 academic year. Based on this initial experience, the plan is to increase the number of IDIL courses and integrate them into the new Montpellier University’s training offer. The aim is to gradually apply this model to 18 courses in 2024, then 30 Master's courses in 2029.
