LabEx training initiatives

LabEx BASC funds a range of training programs designed to enhance the skills of Master's students, PhD students, researchers and/or non-academic partners in areas covered by at least one of its three research areas.
Training courses financed by LabEx BASC :

In the longer term, prospective actions include:

  •     Providing support for Master's students to acquire multidisciplinary skills outside predefined programs;
  •     Creating online courses, including MOOCs and e-learning;
  •     Strengthening connections with renowned international institutes to raise BASC's profile.
