Further studies
The course is designed to enable students to enter the job market at the end of their second Master's degree. Nevertheless, students wishing to pursue a thesis can benefit from enhanced skills in the fundamentals of economic analysis (industrial microeconomics, in-depth econometrics, contract and regulatory theory, etc.). By notifying the teaching staff in advance of their intention to pursue a thesis, students are able to focus their individual work on an introduction to economic research from the first year of the Master's program. Students are also expected to take part in seminars, workshops and conferences organized by the course's research team.

Professional integration
The development of digital technologies has overturned the organization of traditional sectors, starting with the traditional telecommunications and Internet sector, then the media and communications sector. The increasing digitization of numerous sectors of economic activity (energy, transport and mobility, healthcare, finance) is reinforcing the need for the analysis and evaluation skills delivered by the "Digital Economy" pathway. There are therefore numerous career opportunities for students, and the growth in these needs over the next few years should be particularly sustained. What's more, the "Digital Economy" course has been supported for several years by all the companies in the IDATE Foundation, which brings together the major players in the digital economy. This support translates into internship opportunities for students in numerous companies and other institutions.
