Immersion of students in Labs and Undergraduate acculturation to research

Presentation

The Graduate+ ARTS finances student vacations carried out as part of scientific events and for research purposes, primarily those carried out or supported by the Graduate+ ARTS and by the ARTS Institute. The scientific events will have been validated by the laboratory council or, for those strictly relating to the Institute or the Graduate+ ARTS, by the scientific management of these bodies.
During a scientific event that he/she organizes, the teacher-researcher can offer shifts of between 8 and 30 hours for a student whose active presence is required for research support missions. This may involve, for example, supporting the targeted communication of the event, proposing forms of restitution or even introducing the speakers. These various works can be promoted on the G+ ARTS resource platform. The number of hours allocated to each mission is validated during the Selection Commission.
The teacher-researcher must clearly present the vacation mission (tasks, dates and times, volume of hours).
This vacation offer will be broadcast as widely as possible, in particular via Moodle and department management.
