In M1, the PGE offers four tracks, each with different educational objectives according to the student profile.
If you want to develop the international side of your profile, you can! After the first semester in Troyes, in the second semester you can study in one of our 90 partner universities all over the world, then continue with a year abroad before preparing for one of the 10 international dual degrees at M2 level (Germany, Austria, Spain, Indonesia, Italy, Latvia, Morocco, Poland and Russia). All our partnerships are included in the price, so you won’t have any additional tuition fees to pay.
If you want to benefit a little longer from the familiar setting or take time to improve your English before going abroad in the 3rd year, or if you’re an international student who wants to stay longer in France, the France track is perfect for you! A year with 2 semesters of classes, taught in English: the opportunity to pass your TOEIC, essential for obtaining your degree. Step out of your comfort zone during a one-month humanitarian internship and gain experience and maturity.
