The Faculty of Sciences, by its uniqueness but also its diversity, is at the service of the triple university mission: teaching, research and citizenship.
One of the missions of the Faculty of Science is to prepare students to become self-reliant scientists imbued with the critical thinking and adaptability necessary to meet tomorrow's technological challenges.
At the forefront of research, the Faculty of Science develops a rigorous and innovative scientific approach that contributes to the quality of its teaching.
Although it satisfies the intellectual need and curiosity of the scientist, science is open to the world. In the service of men and women, it is closely linked to all aspects of human life.
