Formation through research in the master N²

The master program N²   builds on the strength of the Grenoble research community to provide a strong formation through research.  A significant portion of the second year courses are taught by researchers of the partner institutes. The standard curriculum contains more than 7 months of full time research internships:

• the M1 research internship of minimum 8 weeks, starting from end of April ;
• the M2 master thesis of 5 months minimum, starting end of January

In addition, the Research Intensive Training offers students the possibility of extending these internships with a continuous immersion in their labs in parallel to their courses, thanks to elective modules. Following this training, students can prepare actively a continuation in PhD.

Research internship allowance

According to French law, internships must be covered by a convention de stage. During the internship, the research institute pays the student an allowance of 590€/month, for a maximum duration of 6 months in a given academic year.
