The French Teach: Is interdisciplinarity the key to ecological progress?

All audiences

Why study in France? Which field should you choose? And what’s the special spark that makes studying in France so unique?
Welcome to The French Teach, the brand-new podcast by Campus France that dives into the world of French academic excellence. In this episode, we take a look at the schools that take a different approach to ecology, using one of France's most cutting-edge areas of research as an example: oceanography.

How can we train students to meet the environmental challenges that lie ahead? A number of French schools are beginning to lay the foundations for new courses, focusing on interdisciplinarity. New synergies between different scientific programmes, training in climate issues for students who have not been trained for this purpose... there is no longer any question of being ‘just a journalist’ or ‘just a businessman’, you need to be able to specialize in your area of defense. In this episode, we take a look at the schools that take a different approach to ecology, using one of France's most cutting-edge areas of research as an example: oceanography.
