Teaching method
Strong points of the pedagogical approach
- methods which reflect the interdisciplinary nature of the programme: interdisciplinarity in both in the core subjects as well as the area studies
- variety of teaching strategies (including e-learning):
- most of the teaching staff are familiar with new multi-media technology and innovations introduced by the University Teaching Institute (l'Institut de pédagogie universitaire). The overall rhythm and workload of the programme is carefully coordinated each year.
- the seminars are designed to help students with the methodological structure of their final piece of work (either research focus or professional focus)
- different learning situations :
- possibility of a period of work experience (professional focus and research focus)
- seminar work (core subjects as well as professional focus and research focus)
- help to prepare for the entrance examinations for the civil service (professional focus)
- possibility of joining a research team (research focus)
Evaluation
It is up to each member of the teaching staff to decide on the most appropriate methods of assessment according to the objectives of the course: oral or written examinations, work to be done throughout the year (e.g. reviews of literature, case studies or essays) or exercises.
