Domain: University Institute of Technology

Description : The IUT d'Avignon Université is located on the Jean-Henri Fabre campus and has been welcoming 550 students in a functional structure with a human dimension for 30 years. Its location in the centre of the Agroparc Technopole helps students to succeed in their careers and contributes to the regional economy. The IUT comprises 4 departments and awards 4 university technology bachelor's degrees (BUT), offered as 3rd year apprenticeships, and 2 university diplomas (DU).
The university bachelor of technology is a 3-year course that confers the degree of licence on its holders. It is aligned with international standards and facilitates exchanges with foreign universities.

The Biological Engineering degree - Agronomy pathway is a national bachelor's degree whose curriculum is designed to meet the needs expressed by professionals.
It trains multi-skilled, autonomous assistant engineers capable of working and developing in all areas of agronomy.

The training is both :

- Scientific (acquisition of fundamental knowledge in biology, microbiology, biochemistry and chemistry)
- Technological (learning agronomic and biotechnological techniques)
- Professional (optimising agricultural production, implementing the ecological transition, etc.)

A great deal of learning takes place outside the classroom: visits to farms, practical work in the field, etc. Our students carry out numerous projects, including growing hops on the IUT site and experimenting in our greenhouse.

A team of teacher-researchers from the Mediterranean Institute of Biodiversity and Ecology (IMBE) is also based at the Avignon University IUT. This proximity makes it possible to offer locally adapted courses in ecology (ecological restoration and ecotoxicology). The course can be supplemented by a 3rd year abroad experience in one of the partner universities (Canada, Spain, Japan, etc.) or a semester of immersion in Canada (partnership with the Collège d'enseignement général et professionnel du Québec).
