Within Montpellier Management, the research teams MRM, LDP, CREAM, CEE-M, CDE, and the School of Law and Health include the majority of teachers-researchers.

The latter are mainly attached to the MRM research unit. This structure, which is unique in the French management laboratory landscape, brings together university supervisory bodies (the University of Montpellier and the University of Perpignan) across a large regional area. Bringing together teacher-researchers and researchers (38 doctoral students), MRM is also a large management laboratory, both in terms of the number of tenured teacher-researchers and doctoral students, giving it critical mass at the national and international level.
