Structure du programme

The 60-credit (250-hour) programme is composed of general courses, two seminars and a final dissertation. All these activities are compulsory. The first semester consists of two introductory courses in European environmental governance, of the two key disciplines linked to the Master's degree. These introductory courses are supplemented by an introductory course on global environmental issues, which is also essential to provide a foundation for the specialised Master's degree. These courses are formal lectures, although they may include contributions from external speakers. The first term also includes a methodology seminar on how to write a Policy Brief, an essential document format in the European bubble. This seminar will be organised around three activities: a presentation of the methodology; presentations by students; and the production of short videos on Policy Brief themes. The second semester consists of an in-depth study of European environmental governance and the writing of the final dissertation. It includes two formal lectures on environmental security issues and on the challenges of environmental governance outside the European Union. A seminar on environmental data will be organised around two other activities: a presentation on the data issue followed by presentations by students. In order to make it easier to follow the programme, to include a wide range of teachers and to prepare participants on the importance of online activities, a portion of the course will be delivered remotely. It is therefore a hybrid training.
