Bachelor in Licence - Géographie et aménagement

Geography and spatial planning programmes examine the organisation of space, territory, and environment at scales ranging from the local to the global. Students study physical geography, urban and regional planning, economic geography, environmental management, cartography, and geographical information systems. The curriculum combines fieldwork, quantitative spatial analysis, and qualitative approaches to understand how societies shape and are shaped by their environments. Planning-oriented modules address land use, sustainable development, urban policy, and territorial governance. Students typically learn to use GIS software and spatial data analysis tools as part of their methodological training, preparing them for technical as well as analytical professional roles. The Licence - Géographie et aménagement at Université de Tours in Tours, France, is a three-year bachelor-level degree taught in French. The programme begins in September, and annual tuition is 178 EUR. Graduates work in urban planning offices, regional development agencies, environmental consultancies, cartography and geographic information services, transport and infrastructure bodies, and public administration at local, regional, and national levels. Many pursue master's degrees in urban planning, environmental management, geographic information science, or territorial development, where the analytical and applied foundation of the licence provides solid preparation for specialist roles in both the public and private sectors. The degree's applied orientation makes it relevant to a wide range of careers in both the public and private sectors.
