Bonus

Framing bonuses

Students may choose to take one or two optional activities for which they will receive a semester bonus. This choice must be made by the student when registering for the semester.

Aix-Marseille Université defines five bonus categories:

The bonus thus obtained translates into an increase in the semester's UE average, subject to a maximum increase of 0.5 points, regardless of the number of activities actually taken by the student. The bonus mark can be retained from one semester to the next within the same year, but cannot be capitalized on when repeating a year. Please note: no bonus is possible in Master 2.

The procedures for collecting and valorizing activities giving rise to bonuses are presented below:

EU promoting women in science

Affiche Bonus filles en sciences.png

The aim of this bonus is to create resources that will be disseminated within secondary and higher education establishments to raise the profile of women in science, combat stereotypes and inspire young girls to pursue scientific studies.

The aim is to raise the profile of young women in science. The project has two components:

  1. Training component: an introduction to be followed remotely for around 1 hour and personal work to gain a better understanding of the problem of the under-representation of women (explanations, issues, solutions).
  2. Action component: production of a "portrait" of a current or current student from one of the UFR Sciences courses, in the form of a video clip and poster.

Groups of 2 or 3 students can participate.
