Profile
In response to societal demands for a better understanding of geobiological processes such as the ones triggering ecological crisis as we experience today, and to new considerations of geological archives as scientific and societal heritage, but also as a limited resource to be managed in a sustainable way, numerous applications of palaeontology (such as environmental micropaleontology , science communication and journalism, heritage management and environmental protection) appeared the last decade. The objectives of Pangea Program is, by integrating strengths within a consortium of 4 acknowledged European universities and associated partners, to respond to the academic challenges raised by these renewed needs in palaeontological expertise.The educational aim of the programme is to qualify students to a level of excellence in one of the three specialized fields of Earth Sciences: Palaeobiology, Geoconservation and Applied Palaeontology. The common goals of these three streams include development of the following abilities:To conduct independent analysis, to define a thesis in Earth Sciences (problem) and to construct a research programme based on existing knowledge, literature and independent observations,To solve complex problems including the independent use of observation, measurement and model methods,To present project results comprehensively, both orally and in writing,To work in a team, both in a leading function or within a collaboration.By bringing together forces and specialization, students will be offered 3 complete tracks targeting 3 possible professional integrations depending their sensibility and professional project.
