Within this framework, calls for projects (400 k€) submitted by UEI managers will be proposed along two lines:
1) Installation of equipment and demonstrators related to ecological transition and sustainable development (TEDS);
2) Support for the creation of courses on ecological and societal transitions: This involves the creation of new courses within a bachelor's or master's degree. The timetable for this call for proposals will be tightened to enable new courses to start up in September 2024.
If you would like to set up a project in this area, please contact your UEI Managers.
We would also like to inform you that other forms of support have been planned as part of the introduction of compulsory TEDS units in the undergraduate curriculum, as well as for raising awareness of TEDS within the university community and training TEDS trainers.

AAP FORMATION PARCOURS TEDS (COMP) & TEDSEQUIP 2024 (COMP) winners
Master EcoScPo GSTT :
Project leaders: François MIRABEL & Guylain CLAMOUR
Faculty : Faculty of Economics
Summary: The creation of the "Governance of Societies and Territories in Transition" Master's degree for the start of the new academic year in September 2024 is a continuation of the Economics-Political Science Bi-licence. The aim is to train public policy executives and managers with a high level of competence in economics and political science. In line with the school's strategy of developing multi-disciplinary courses of excellence around the themes of the PEI (Programme d'Excellence I-site), this master's program addresses issues of governance within societies in transition (energy, digital, food, ecological, cultural, etc.) with a territorial approach.
MTAE :
Project leader: Emmanuel HOUZE
Component : IAE Montpellier
Summary: The Master's degree in Management of Climate Adaptation of Organizations in the Mediterranean aims to prepare students to become players in the environmental transition within public and private organizations. The program is aimed at students from a wide range of backgrounds who wish to acquire the skills needed to manage organizations faced with the challenges of climate change.
The main objectives are to :
- Develop sustainable strategies adapted to public and private organizations.
- Master climate risk management tools.
- Train experts capable of helping companies around the Mediterranean to understand the challenges of climate change.
GREEN CHEMISTRY:
Project sponsor: Pascal DUMY
Component : ENSCM
PhotoBetDEUM: PHOTO reactor and BET for the implementation of sustainable chemistry Practical work at UM and ENSCM
Project sponsor: Pascal DUMY
Component : ENSCM
Summary: Training our students to meet the challenges of the ecological transition is imperative and requires an evolution of our training offer in Bachelor's, Master's and Engineering Chemistry. The PhotoBetDEUM project involves the acquisition of two devices (a photoreactor and a sorption system) to meet 2 decarbonization challenges. They will enable us to propose projects ranging from organic synthesis to materials, using eco-efficient processes. In this way, we will prepare our students to take an active role in meeting the ecological challenges facing the chemical industry, and to propose sustainable solutions. The PhotoBetDEUM project is designed to be inclusive, bringing together the needs of the Fds and ENSCM training programs.
EDPP: ÉducaParc Durable on the Perpignan site
Project sponsor: Agnès PERRIN-DOUCEY
Component : Faculty of Education
Summary: The aim is to adapt the training site to hydric stress and global warming, in order to preserve an attractive and ecologically responsible place to study and work. Through this entrance, the project aims to be a pedagogical demonstrator: a demonstration of an innovative schoolyard, an incubator for open pedagogy and a meeting place for teachers, future student teachers and their trainers. The creation of this space should open up the training site to a network of exchanges.
SEZU: Small Wind Turbine System for Urban Areas
Project sponsor: Jean-Michel MARIN
Component : Faculty of Science
Summary: The aim of the project is to develop a low-power vertical-axis urban wind turbine connected to the electricity grid on the Triolet campus. This multi-disciplinary project essentially mobilizes skills in mechanics (manufacture of the support, optimization of wind kinetic energy conversion) and electricity (development of a high-performance generator/converter assembly). System supervision (SCADA for Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) is also a central element of the project.
ECOFORUM : (FORmation à la transition ECOlogique de l'Université de Montpellier) - Environmental diagnosis of biodiversity, air quality and climate change for the ecological transition training program of the University of Montpellier.
Project sponsor: Jean-Michel MARIN
Component : Faculty of Science
Summary: The aim of the ECOFORUM project is to set up innovative teaching resources within the Faculty of Science to help students learn about the challenges of ecological transition by collecting and analyzing meteorological and climatic data, air quality and biodiversity monitoring using dedicated equipment and methodologies. These data will also help to raise the profile of the University and its research through participatory science.
CP-REC-4.0: Production Chain 4.0 that recycles materials
Project sponsor: Moulay Said EL YOUSSOUFI
Component : IUT de Nîmes
Summary: The project is at the heart of a dynamic initiative by the GEII, SGM and GMP departments of the Nîmes IUT. These departments are combining their skills to design a production line dedicated to the training of BUT students, integrating materials sorting and recycling processes, all orchestrated by advances in Industry 4.0. With the demonstrator project presented here, our ambition is to go beyond student training, and build a flexible, open and accessible information tool. The target audience will be secondary school pupils, students and industrialists.
IPTECH: Instrumentation des Plateformes TECHnologiques pédagogiques pour la mesure d'impacts environnementaux (Instrumentation of educational technology platforms for measuring environmental impact)
Project sponsor: Lionel TORRES
Component : Polytech
Summary: As part of a drive to strengthen our position on TEDS issues, the aim of this project is to equip several educational technology platforms with an IoT (Internet of Things) type infrastructure dedicated to flow measurement, in order to be able to quantify environmental impacts. This project is thus dedicated to: (i) installing sensors on each experimental device ("connected" workstation), to determine electricity and fluid consumption as well as gas emissions, and (ii) interfacing them for real-time data display. Polytech Montpellier's Materials hall and the Béziers IUT will be the first to be equipped and will serve as a pilot: the approach will then be transposed to the other platforms of the School and associated components.
Leave for educational projects (for information)
The campaign for granting leave for pedagogical projects (CPP) remains independent of the AAPs and the success of an AAP. In other words, it is possible to submit a CPP project that is not linked to a response to an AAP. Success in an AAP does not automatically lead to the granting of a CPP, as the allocation procedures follow separate circuits.
