Doctoral students, doctoral schools, theses


© INRA
The Division hosts approximately twenty new doctoral students per year. They make an important contribution to research in our key focus areas. They are trained by the hosting research units for research and by research. The doctoral student receives a salary and has an employee status. Information on subjects or administrative aspects can be obtained directly from the Division or directly from the research units implicated in the research that interests you. You can obtain information on other grant possibilities from the INRA infoservice dedicated to doctoral students.

≈ Welcome :
Each of the 14 research units of the Animal Genetics Division train doctoral students.

Directory of research units and fields of study


≈ Thesis subject :

The subject is proposed by the thesis advisor and the laboratory in which the study is performed, sometimes in relation with the financing organisation, before the student registers as a doctoral student. The choice of the subject is very important since it orients the doctor for his/her future.
