The Shanghai 2023 “Marine/Ocean Engineering” GRAS ranks Nantes Université, which includes Centrale Nantes, France’s leader player in ocean engineering, in 41st place worldwide. This makes it the first and only French institution in this ranking, which lists the world’s 50 best universities per academic subject.
The combined academic strengths of Centrale Nantes and the Sciences & Technology Division have made it possible for Nantes Université to secure the 41st place in marine/ocean engineering, thanks to its key positioning in this field, supported by unique experimental capabilities such as Centrale Nantes’ ocean test tanks.
This joint achievement, which is unprecedented in France in this field, reflects both the high quality and impact of the scientific output of Centrale Nantes’ research teams and of Nantes Université as a whole.
