Géosciences Environnement Toulouse

Our scientific themes

One of GET’s major strengths lies in its ability to deploy a resolutely multidisciplinary approach, integrating a wide range of Earth and environmental science fields – geology, geochemistry, geophysics, geodesy, hydrology, pedology – enriched by perspectives from geography and sociology 7 complementary research teams utilizes complementary skills in spatial and in situ observation, numerical and analog modeling, and laboratory experimentation.

Our technical poles

GET relies on a foundation of complementary expertise in space and in situ observation, digital and analog modeling, and laboratory experimentation. These skills are reinforced by a first-rate analytical and instrumental park, structured into 25 services and platforms, organized into three technical hubs, as well as cross-disciplinary services that support all the unit’s research activities.
