Institut d'urbanisme et de géographie alpine

Lecturers in French universities are, in most cases, also researchers. As such, they are members of the research centres of the Université Grenoble Alpes.

Lecturers involved in the Master program TRUST conduct their research mainly in the Pacte laboratory, a social science research centre, or in Larhra, a contemporary history research centre.
