Science and Technology
This field, often referred to as "hard science", is taught at eleven schools at the University of Rennes:
- the four Institutes of Technology - IUT (Lannion, Rennes, Saint-Brieuc and Saint-Malo),
- the two engineering schools (ENSSAT and ESIR),
- the Earth Science and Astronomy Observatory of Rennes (OSUR) and the Mathematics, Life and Environmental Sciences, Sciences and Properties of Matter and ISTIC schools.
