  3. Facilities • Near a Nuclear Power Plant • 2 greenhouses • 3 recircultating aquaculture systems and 3 flow through systems • Larval rearing facilities • Outdoor tanks • Ponds • Laboratories

  4. Water supply • Water from river Meuse 4 to 25°C • Ground water • 17°C • Warm water from the nuclear power plant • 20 to 40°C

  5. Education • Inter-University master in aquaculture • 1 year • 16 students /year • 12 grant holder / year from Belgian cooperation • Systematic, ecology, Aquaculture biological basis, pathology, nutrition, genetic, biostatistic, production system, aquatic rearing technology, aquariology, product quality, economical and legislative aspects • Master’s thesis • Ph.D • 1 to 2 Ph.D / year • Genetic, reproductive and growth physiology, sex determination, … • Technical • 3 month work experience • Rearing technology and rearing systems

  6. Applied Research • Tropical Aquaculture • Tilapias, Clarias, Characidae, grass carp • Production • Genetical and growth improvement • Rearing technology • Rearing system • Biological control
