General information on research training
The professor-scientists and the CNRS scientists at LOV regularly welcome interns and they supervise many theses. The professor-scientists at LOV teach in the "MASTER de Sciences et Technologies de l'UPMC", "Mention: Sciences de l'Univers, Environnement, Ecologie et Spécialité Océanographie" and "Environnement Marin". They teach at Villefranche and at the Jussieu campus in Paris.

By bringing specialists from various disciplines together at LOV, young researchers receive a multi-disciplinary training in oceanography. A solid multi-disciplinary education is essential in today’s research environment, in order to study, model, and predict changes that will continue to affect our planet in the coming decades (for example, global warming, the collapse of natural resources that were previously renewable, and the loss of biodiversity). The professors and researchers at LOV continually innovate with respect to their teaching methods (for example, multi-disciplinary placements and teaching at a distance).
