Know-how and skills

The course content will be delivered using active teaching methods aimed at developing students' creativity and independence. Tutored projects in partnership with industry and workshops will enable students to learn how to implement projects in their future profession.
The aim is to develop specific skills related to mediation, promote interdisciplinary dialogue, and build cross-disciplinary and language skills in a collaborative environment.

In M1, the mention of training engineering and intercultural training is common to all three courses.
Acquiring knowledge related to artistic and cultural education at school and in school, extracurricular, and after-school structures will enable students to understand children, adolescents, and young adults.
The design of mediation projects will be based on knowledge of artistic and cultural mediation: developments, transformations, current events, and challenges. Multidisciplinary teaching allows artistic and cultural proposals (painting, photography, poetry, theater, dance, etc.) to be linked to educational challenges.
The program also includes theoretical insights into current issues in the arts, culture, and sciences in the fields of education and mediation.
With a strong knowledge of national and international artistic and cultural policies, students will develop their professional skills related to mediation and will be required to design and communicate artistic and cultural projects supervised in partnership with an institution.
English for professional purposes 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, particularly its Education, Politics, and Society research group. Research is developed throughout the master's program.
