Application

Requirements

International students can enter at various stages of the program, either for the full two years, one year or a single semester.

Entering at the Master 1 level (M1) requires at least a 3-year university degree (and 120 ECTS or equivalent) in Earth Sciences or Physical Geography. Applications from students with a Bachelor’s degree in Natural Sciences, Physics or Chemistry can also be considered after discussion with the STPE pedagogical team. Incoming exchanges during the second semester (S2) by students of the CIVIS network are particularly encouraged.

Entering at the Master 2 level (M2) requires 4 years of undergraduate/master education (European M1 or equivalent), with a background in Earth Sciences or Physical Geography. Students from the US or Canada with a 4-year Bachelor’s degree in these fields can also apply for direct admission to M2.

Courses take place in English, so fluency in English is mandatory.

Students interested in the program are encouraged to contact us to discuss the various options offered depending on their background.
