Master Intervention Et Developpement Social

Tuition fees are 250 EUR per year.

Université Bretagne Sud, based in Lorient, France, offers a master's program in social intervention and development (Intervention et Développement Social), a discipline focused on building and managing programs that address social need within communities, families and vulnerable populations. Coursework in this field generally covers social policy analysis, methods for community and territorial development, project design and management for the social sector, and the sociological study of poverty, exclusion and inequality. Many programs in this area include placements or applied projects with associations, local authorities or public social services, giving students direct experience alongside classroom learning. Graduates from this field typically move into roles coordinating or managing social programs within nonprofit associations, local government social services, housing or employment support organizations, or agencies focused on youth and family services. This is a master's-level degree lasting two years and taught in French, so strong French communication skills are essential given the field's reliance on direct work with people and with French public administration. The program begins in September, with yearly tuition set at 250 euros. Students drawn to this path should be comfortable combining academic study of social policy with hands-on project work, since programs in social intervention and development typically expect graduates to move fluidly between analysis, planning and direct engagement with the populations their programs are meant to serve.
