Know-how and skills

The course content will be taught through an active pedagogical approach designed to develop students' creativity and autonomy, and tutored projects in partnership & workshops will train students to implement projects in the context of their future profession.
The aim is to develop specific skills linked to mediation, to encourage interdisciplinary dialogue and to build cross-disciplinary and linguistic skills in a collaborative framework.

In M1, training engineering and intercultural training is common to all three courses.
The acquisition of knowledge relating to artistic and cultural education in schools, extracurricular and extra-curricular structures will enable us to assess the needs of children, teenagers and young adults.
The design of mediation projects will be based on knowledge of artistic and cultural mediation: developments, transformations, current events and issues. Multi-disciplinary teaching enables the articulation of artistic and cultural proposals (painting, photography, poetry, theater, dance, etc.) with educational issues.
Training also includes theoretical insights into current issues in the arts, culture and sciences in the fields of education and mediation.
Building on their knowledge of national and international artistic and cultural policies, students will develop their professional skills in the field of mediation, and will be required to design and communicate artistic and cultural projects in partnership with an institution.
English applied to the profession and a mediation workshop in English prepare students for the international dimension of the profession.
The Master's program is supported by the LIRDEF laboratory, and in particular by the Education, Politics and Society axis. Research is carried out throughout the Master's program.
