Teaching Modalities

Detailed assessment methods are communicated at the beginning of the year.

The program is organized into two semesters, with each semester allowing students to earn 30 ECTS credits. The course units offered are either courses taught in the first semester or research workshops taken in the second semester.
The courses offered are 15-hour courses worth 3 ECTS credits. In addition to the core courses, the courses are divided into three lists for each of the three options. In each list, two courses are identified as compulsory.

In the first semester, students must take 10 courses divided as follows: In the second semester, students choose one main research workshop from among the workshops in their option (20 ECTS credits). They will complete their internship and master's thesis within this workshop. They also choose two research workshops from among the other workshops, within which they will complete a secondary thesis (2x5 ECTS).

  • 5 core courses
  • 2 compulsory courses specific to their option
  • 2 optional courses chosen from the list of courses for their option
  • 1 optional course chosen from among all the courses offered (including compulsory courses from other options)

Internships and Supervised Projects

The internship is five months in duration, and takes place from April to September. It takes place in a university or company research center and is the subject of the student’s thesis and oral defense.
