A pioneer in ocean science, IFREMER's cutting-edge research is grounded in sustainable development and open science.His vision is to advance science, expertise and innovation to protect and restore the ocean, sustainably use marine resources to benefit societ, create and share ocean data, information & knowledge.
With more than 1,500 personnel spread along the French coastline in more than 20 sites, the institute explores the 3 great oceans: the Indian, Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
Founded in 1984, IFREMER is a French public organization and its budget approximates 240 million euros. It is operating under the joint authority of the French Ministry for Higher Education, Research and Innovation, the French Ministry for the Ecological and Solidary Transition, and the French Ministry of Agriculture and Food.

UBO caters for 20,000 students and over 4,500 learners on continuous training every year across its 6 sites in Brittany. It contributes actively to the region's innovation and economic landscape and is awarded 240 research contracts every year. The university also organizes events in the region such as conferences and lectures etc. It has secured numerous international research partnerships and enjoys a strong reputation both in France and abroad with its labs of excellence, especially in marine sciences (Labex Mer label obtained recently).

The National Center for Scientific Research

The IRD is a key French player on the international development agenda. It is based on an original model: equitable scientific partnerships with developing countries, primarily those in the intertropical regions and the Mediterranean area.

ENSTA Bretagne, Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Techniques Avancées Bretagne (formerly ENSIETA), is a French national postgraduate engineering research institute. This multidisciplinary engineering school operates under the auspices of the French Defence Procurement Agency (DGA). In conjunction with ENSTA ParisTech, it forms a group of institutes of advanced technology, recognised for outstanding performance in their fields of expertise: energy, transport, marine engineering and major industrial systems. It caters for 650 students trained in a 'systems approach': in an international context, they have the capacity to design and create complex industrial systems combining mechanics, electronics and IT in all sectors of industry: shipbuilding, aeronautics, automotive, telecommunications, defence, etc.). The success of ENSTA Bretagne continues to grow year on year, and its graduates are snapped up by the sectors in which their skills are a perfect fit. Located in Brest, the European capital of marine science and technology, ENSTA Bretagne notably offers in-depth study of naval architecture and offshore engineering as well as unique training courses in France for hydrography engineers and specialists in marine renewable energies.
