MA/MS in Études africaines

The interdisciplinary master in African studies examines economic, social, environmental, demographic and political change in African societies. It sits at the junction of social sciences, natural sciences and humanities, and studies Africa in its interactions with the rest of the world. The programme opens with a common interdisciplinary core, followed by specialisation and option courses. Students choose between a research option, including fieldwork and a thesis, and a professional option ending in an internship and report. Exchanges with partner African universities are offered. The programme runs for 2 years, 4 semesters, with 120 ECTS credits.
