The academic year officially began at AgroParisTech on September 9th 2025 for Track 1 - cohort 5 students, marked by conviviality, discovery, and connection in Palaiseau and in Paris.
Students are enrolled in the Master 2 in Integrative Biology and Physiology (IBP), study track Biomass Engineering for Bioeconomy (BEB), delivered by the Université Paris-Saclay (UPSaclay), operated by AgroParisTech. This year, the cohort includes two Bioceb students and seven students from outside Bioceb, creating a truly diverse mix of profiles!
After a general presentation of the courses and expectations for the semester, the students enjoyed a nice lunch with academic and administrative staff! This convivial gathering allowed students to meet their classmates, exchange first impressions, and start building bonds. The afternoon was devoted to a visit of the library and the experimental hall.
On September 10th, the classes officially started. In the afternoon, the group embarked on a Bateaux Mouches cruise along the Seine. This activity not only introduced students to the city’s iconic landmarks—from Notre-Dame to the Musée d’Orsay—but also created a relaxed atmosphere for conversation and team building.
This "rentrée" event embodies the values of the Bioceb programme: intercultural exchange, teamwork, and community spirit. We wish the students a fruitful and inspiring academic year at AgroParisTech. Bienvenue à tous!
