Program details

Overview

The Risques, sécurité et conflits master trains experts in risk analysis and security policy. It combines a solid base in social sciences with professional training through work-study in the second year. Students learn rigorous analysis methods for national and international crises, and the programme prepares graduates for operational expertise through academic grounding and close contact with the professional world. Year one consolidates political science foundations and includes an internship of at least two months in the second semester. Year two runs entirely as work-study, alternating two days at university with three days in a host organisation. Teaching involves academics and professionals from defence and security. The master totals 120 ECTS over two years.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Master 1 via monmaster.gouv.fr. Entry to M2 is by right for students who validated the RISC M1. External applicants are assessed on file by a pedagogical committee, which considers the strength of the social-science background, prior experience such as internships or commitments, and fit with security and risk careers.
