MEEF - General education in vocational high schools

This course is aimed at careers in vocational high schools, based on bivalency in general subjects (literature-history and geography, Spanish-letters and English-letters). It is primarily aimed at vocational high school teachers. We should also add professions where knowledge of the conditions and practices of vocational teaching is required, or can serve as the basis for complementary professional developments, such as adult education
(languages and literature in particular). The versatility of the training program means that the general culture acquired can be used as a basis for further career development.

MEEF - Organizational Economics and Management

Preparation for public competitive examinations and the training of future teachers of economics and management occupy a central place in the Master's program. The examinations prepared for in the second year of the Master's program are those for the CAPET and CAPLP external examinations in Economics and Management, in the options below.

Each academic year, the opening of options within the program depends on whether or not they are
open, and on the number of students enrolled in the program.
As a result, part of the program is organized by stream (lycée technologique / lycée professionnel) and/or by option.

MEEF - Engineering sciences middle schools high schools and industrial techniques vocational high schools

This course is designed to prepare students for careers in secondary education, with two main objectives.
The first is to specialize in the technology taught in junior high schools, the engineering sciences taught in general and technological high schools, as well as industrial science and technology and sustainable development (STI 2D). The courses cover subject areas such as mechanics, electronics, civil engineering, automation, digital computing, etc., seen as resources for the analysis of multi-technology systems. The educational sciences are also covered in depth: the education system, didactics, pedagogy, curricula and reference systems, etc. This part of the course is designed to prepare students for the four options of the "CAPET Industrial Engineering Sciences", intended for the recruitment of teachers of these specialties in junior high schools, high schools and even some BTS. It is also aimed at current or contract teachers wishing to train for a teaching qualification in middle and/or high schools.
The second objective, relating to vocational high schools, specializes future workshop teachers in preparing vocational students in the fields of Industrial Science and Technology (STI) (mechanical, electrical, civil engineering...). In addition to the traditional contributions in the fields of Industrial Science and Technology, which are essential to these courses, this Master's program includes major contributions in educational science and didactics, based on official reference documents, as well as training for course preparation. It goes without saying that the oral and written communication skills required for the teaching profession will also be covered.
In both cases, preparation for competitive examinations remains an essential objective, with the longer-term aim of preparing professional, reflective teachers who deliver quality teaching. The master's program also includes an introduction to research, seen as learning through research.
