Master in Plant's biology
Planta international
Presentation and goals
PLANT-Int is proposed by University Grenoble Alpes (UGA) and Università degli Studi di Milano (UNIMI) and leads to a double master's degree diploma delivered by both universities. Teaching is provided in english, by commuting between Grenoble and Milan, with a large panel of options and internships that allow a customized study plan for every student.
The PLANT-Int major of the master's in biology focuses on Plant science. PLANT-Int trains future scientists for academic or private careers in plant biology and plant biotechnology.

Access condition
- First year of the master's degree in Biology (Molecular and cellular biology program) : if you have completed a bachelor’s degree in Sciences or are enrolled in the final semester of a bachelor’s program in Sciences in France, you are eligible to apply for the first year of the master’s degree in biology
- Second year of the master's degree in Biology : to be eligible to apply, you should have completed (or you should be enrolled in) a first year of a master’s degree in Sciences i.e. you should have validated 60 ETCS of a master’s degree in Sciences by the end of your current academic year.
Public continuing education : You are in charge of continuing education :
• if you resume your studies after 2 years of interruption of studies
• or if you followed training under the continuous training regime one of the previous 2 years
• or if you are an employee, job seeker, self-employed
If you do not have the diploma required to integrate the training, you can undertake a validation of personal and professional achievements (VAPP).
