Discover and practice research on state-of-the-art experimental platforms on the Lorraine site!
Are you in Master 1 or 2, or in an engineering school? Some Master’s or engineering programs offer Excellence Practicals (TPs).
These ORION-labelled laboratory sessions allow you to practice research on the Lorraine site’s cutting-edge experimental platforms. They constitute (or will eventually constitute) a teaching unit (UE) of 30 or 32 hours with ECTS credits awarded to participants.
