Presentation of the doctoral school
The ED GRNE currently relies on 8 high-level research laboratories (bringing together more than 180 researchers and teacher-researchers, including almost 120 HDRs, associated with Sorbonne Université, MINES Paris PSL, ENS PSL and IFP-School/IFPEN; these three establishments are co-accredited.
Presentation
Our originality lies in our association with leading engineering schools, through which we have privileged contact with the industrial sector. This association, which is the result of long-standing scientific and educational cooperation, offers the dual advantage of combining fundamental and applied research, and of providing doctoral students with more opportunities in terms of doctoral projects, funding, training and placement.
The scientific policy of the ED GRNE is to support that of the host teams that make it up, and to offer training in and through research to French and foreign PhD students wishing to acquire skills in the field of Geosciences in the broadest sense, combining fundamental aspects and their applications to the prospecting, exploitation and protection of natural resources.
