Présentation
The Master Program in Development Economics is a two-years international program with the first year both in French and English (Master 1 Economie du Développement) and the second year fully in English. We also propose a two-years program fully in English with the PSME - Development Track in the first year.
Pantheon-Sorbonne University is the first French University in Development according to the Top Univ QS Ranking. Our Master Program is also the oldest diploma in Economic Development in France (founded by Gaston Leduc in the 1960's).
The Master Program in Development Economics has multiple cooperations with top universities in Emerging Countries (Cairo University in Egypt, Javeriana University in Colombia, University of Cape Town in South Africa, Peking University in China). In Master 2, students are coming from all over the World. Each years, more than 20 nationalites are represented at the Master 2 level. It is a great opportunity to study in a truly international environment.
In order to get a Master Degree in Development Economics at the Sorbonne School of Economics (Panthéon-Sorbonne University), you have different options.
- You can follow a two-years program starting in Master 1. The first year will be in French and in English. In the second year, you will have to choose between the Master 2 Development Economics (Research Master in English) and the Master 2 Economie du Développement Durable (professional Master both in French in English). Both Master 1 and Master 2 are French "national diplomas".
- You can follow a two-years program with all courses in English starting in Master 1. In that case, you will have to apply to the Paris Sorbonne Master in Economics (PSME) - Development Track. The PSME is a program custom-made for international students wishing to study Economics at the Sorbonne. The PSME program is a first year of Graduate Studies (Diplome Universitaire) which offers Economics courses taught in English, together with intensiv courses of the French language. The PSME-Development track gives the equivalence with the national diploma M1 Economie du Développement. After the PSME Development track, you have a direct acces to the Master 2 Development Economics and the Master Economie du Développement Durable.
Objectifs
The aim of the Master Program in Development Economics is to train students into highly qualified analysts of economic development issues. Its purpose is to answer the growing demand for experts capable of addressing the challenges of economic development, evaluating the economic policies of developing countries and analyzing the economic relations between unequally developed countries. The Master program offers rigorous training in analytical and quantitative economic methods. Its goal is indeed to equip talented students with a solid foundation for applied research. The program is however geared to both future academics and future practitioners in the field of development economics and international economics. The program combines the benefits of “Grandes Ecoles” training (intensive teaching) and the strengths of the University (links to research activities, contact with the best experts..).
