Master Intervention Et Developpement Social

Social intervention and development (Intervention et Développement Social) is a field concerned with designing and running programs that support individuals, families and communities facing social difficulties, and this master's program is delivered by Université Rennes 2 in Rennes Cedex, France. Students typically study social policy, community development methods, project management for social programs, sociology of exclusion and inequality, and the evaluation of social interventions, often alongside placements with organizations working in social services. Coursework tends to combine theoretical grounding in sociology and social policy with practical training in running projects, managing teams, and working with public agencies, nonprofits and local authorities. Career paths linked to this field include roles in nonprofit organizations, local government social services, community development agencies, and coordination or management positions within associations working on housing, employment, youth or family support. The degree is a master's, spanning two years and taught in French, so solid French-language skills are needed both for coursework and for the fieldwork and placements that typically accompany this kind of program. It begins in September, and yearly tuition is 250 euros. Applicants should be comfortable working directly with people and communities as well as with policy analysis, since social intervention programs generally blend academic study with applied, people-facing project work in French-speaking settings.
