Programmes
Our School offers:
- first and second-cycle programmes (Bachelor, Master and Complementary Certificate)
- third-cycle programmes (PhD)
- continuing education programmes for people who are already working
The Bachelor degree is a first-cycle programme that generally takes three years to complete (180 credits under the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System). It provides students with fundamental knowledge and skills in their chosen field of study.
The Master programme offers students more specialized knowledge and skills. It generally takes one and a half years (90 ECTS credits) or two years (120 ECTS credits) to complete. Students may be admitted to the programme if they hold a Bachelor in the same field of study (“consecutive” Master programmes) or if their application is accepted (“specialized” Master programmes).
The Complementary Certificate is a short programme (generally 30 ECTS credits) that is open to students who already hold a Bachelor or Master degree and wish to add a new area of specialty to their degree.
The PhD programme gives students the opportunity to demonstrate their ability to carry out a major research project in the form of a thesis. The Faculty offers different specializations at the doctoral level:
social sciences
information systems
urban and regional planning
demographics
environment and sustainable development
