The Master SOAC (Sciences of Oceans, Atmosphere and Climate) is a Master carried by the University Lyon 1 (Physics Department, Chemistry Department) in co-accreditation with the Ecole Centrale Lyon, intended to meet the current and future needs for competent students in Sciences of Oceans, Atmosphere and Climate. Following a common M1SOAC year, the student chooses at the end of the M1 year his or her M2 pathway: Ocean Sciences pathway, Atmospheric Sciences pathway, Climate Sciences pathway.
1. The Master is co-accredited by the University of Lyon 1 (Physics Department, Chemistry Department) and the Ecole Centrale Lyon in order to enable students to acquire a triple skill set: Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, which can be used on the job market.
2. Three complementary courses are offered in M2 SOAC following a common M1 SOAC year:
- Atmospheric Sciences
- Climate Sciences course
- Water and Ocean Sciences course
Possibility of following each of these three courses in initial training, continuing education, or alternating training (by professionalisation and apprenticeship).
Possibility of personalising your course by choosing an opening (M1) and options (within the three M2 courses)
The choice of M2 course is made at the end of the M1 year (May).
