MSc Cycle 1st year – Political Studies
Page updated on April 22, 2022
Digital Transformation of Public Services
This program will provide students with a more specific and refined understanding of digital issues and digital transformation in the public sector. It will offer insights as embodied as possible, combining vision of the major issues, perspectives and illustrations based on concrete cases, and the technological context. The student will benefit from the contribution of a teaching which would be largely given by professionals able to provide an accessible vision of the current situation and the perspectives of these issues and a concrete experience of their implementation.
This first year of the MSc Political Studies program has the dual objective of specializing and professionalizing students.
At the end of this year, the student is required to complete several months of internship. HEIP supports and encourages its students to carry out their professional experience in an NGO, a company or a public institution in order to further their career plans. In the second year, they will have a real goal of professional integration. Each field of expertise continues into the second year of the MSc program in one of the specializations offered or as part of a double degree with one of our partners.
Beware! The international admission procedure only concerns you if you are not a French citizen and you live outside of France.
