- the MSc in Plant Biology and Technology (PBT) is the flagship of the Plant Science program in Angers. Relying on the complementary expertise of the teaching teams including both Angers and Nantes universities and engineering schools in equal proportion, and researchers from INRA, the Msc PBT is a disciplinary-oriented program that covers all aspects of plant sciences, biotechnology and plant production. French is the teaching language for the vast majority of courses. As pointed out by the HCERES assessment in 2016, the PBT Master, is characterized by a strong national visibility, a very good success rate for graduation (93 %) and professional integration (82 %) as well as by strong involvement of researchers in the teaching programmes.
