The objective of this Master's programme is to train managers in fundamental research and industrial research and development who will have an integrated vision not only of the biology of microorganisms, from the molecular to the ecosystem level, but also of the industrial applications that result from it, in a variety of fields (innovation in agri-food - quality, bioremediation, health, bioenergy, diagnostic tools, industrial microbiology). The first year of the Master's programme is common to all students.
The second year is organised into three different pathways :
The Master's degree in Microbiology allows students to either enter the professional world directly after completing their Master's 2 or continue their studies at a doctoral level. Career opportunities include management/engineering positions in R&D, industry (health, agri-food), quality management, sustainable development, hygiene/environment/safety. Further studies in the form of a PhD within UCA laboratories, national and international laboratories, or in collaboration with companies (CIFRE), provide access to careers as researchers and research professors in various fields of microbiology.
